Day 6: The Story

This song, The Story by Brandi Carlile, is one that has struck me as an amazingly beautiful, but cutting song. This morning I turned it on, as I was in a melancholy mood, but realized this is my blessing. For so long, I moped around saying 'I have nobody... I wish I had someone to share this song with'.... Then this morning it donned on me... I DO.... This is totally perfect- Jesus and I are this way- he knows everything about me- every scar, every line on my face, he knows my thoughts without me speaking them, and I was made to SERVE him... how incredible does that make this song... pretty amazing.. This picture fits perfectly too..

All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am
But these stories don't mean anything
When you've got no one to tell them to
It's true...I was made for you
I climbed across the mountain tops
Swam all across the ocean blue
I crossed all the lines and I broke all the rules
But baby I broke them all for you
Because even when I was flat broke
You made me feel like a million bucks
You do
I was made for you
You see the smile that's on my mouth
It's hiding the words that don't come out
And all of my friends who think that I'm blessed
They don't know my head is a mess
No, they don't know who I really am
And they don't know what 
I've been through like you do
And I was made for you...
All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am
But these stories don't mean anything
When you've got no one to tell them to
It's true...I was made for you
