Few things in this world have connected with me as much as this song. The truth of the matter is that I am tired and I am worn. Every single lyric from working to breathe and life not letting up connects to me. Right now, it's taking some pretty serious effort for me to keep on breathing. I'm finding myself in a scary place that I haven't been in since 8th grade where my thoughts and questions and concerns and worries and doubts are building up and taking over my thoughts. So it was a Godsend when on my way home tonight, as my thoughts were starting to weigh down on my shoulders, this song came on the radio. Hearing it reminded me that I can be reborn, the struggle ends, and I am not alone. Not alone in my struggles and doubts, and also not getting through it alone. This song has never failed to give me hope and peace since I discovered it.
So yes, I'm tired and I'm worn, and breathing is taking a lot of work, but redemption will win and the struggle will end. I just have to remember that you, God, will give me rest.
