I'm Letting Go

For awhile back there this winter everything seemed so blah. Gray weather, gray skies, gray mood. I was sick, tired, and sick and tired of not having any clarity about my next step in life. I was tired of praying because I wasn't hearing any response. God, are you there? Are you even listening to me? I didn't know what to do next, although I clearly knew I was not in control. Then I started hearing this song on the radio. Not just once or twice, but pretty much every time I got into my car or turned on the radio at home. I'm not one to believe in coincidence. I believe everything that happens in our lives has a purpose. So I couldn't ignore this song. I knew it meant something and that I just had to wait and see what. Now with a little hindsight, it's becoming clearer. God was definitely trying to get my attention.


I'm Letting Go - Francesca Battistelli

My heart beats, standing on the edge
But my feet have finally left the ledge

Like an acrobat
There’s no turning back

Chorus
I’m letting go
Of the life I planned for me
And my dreams
Losing control
Of my destiny
Feels like I’m falling and that’s what it’s like to believe
So I’m letting go

This is a giant leap of faith
Trusting and trying to embrace

The fear of the unknown
Beyond my comfort zone

Chorus
I’m letting go
Of the life I planned for me
And my dreams
Losing control
Of my destiny
Feels like I’m falling and that’s what it’s like to believe
So I’m letting go

Giving in to your gravity
Knowing You are holding me
I’m not afraid

Feels like I’m falling and that’s what it’s like to believe
Feels like I’m falling and this is the life for me
