The Art of Breaking- Thousand Foot Krutch

3/18/2013

1 Comment

 
I'm being broken right now, this very moment. I am a very orderly person (so laughs the rest of the CDO community.  If you don't know what CDO is, ask me.) 

I have a to-do list for every day of the week. Monday (today) is for going on Twitter, not for updating any blogs.  But this routine started crumbling last week, and it has just been breaking down more and more since then, doing the wrong things on the wrong days.  Driving me insane.

Why is it happening? (I won't say I'm doing it on purpose.) I feel I am being broken down, bit by bit.  My walls of consistency had a very strong mortar. And apparently, it needed to be chipped away so I could learn to get out of my comfort zone.

Staying in my comfort zone keeps me too reliant on myself and my routines.  Leaving that safety net, I am blind to possible results.  I can't see what will happen, so I must fix my eyes on something else besides myself.  Like, maybe God?

The words here explain a promise.
"I'll pick you up, won't let you fall
I'll build your trust and it won't hurt at all"

We just need to trust and believe.
