It's kind of like coffee...

How many times have I turned away
The number is the same as the sand on the shore
But every time You've taken me back
And now I pray You do it once more.

Please take from me my life
When I don't have the strength
to give it away to You Jesus

How many times have I turned away
The number is the same as the stars in the sky
But every time You've taken me back
And now I pray You do it tonight.

Please take from me my life
When I don't have the strength
to give it away to You Jesus

-- Take My Life, Third Day

That's what I've been feeling lately. I feel like I just don't have the strength or energy to give to Jesus. Trying to keep up with homework feels like too much already. Yet, giving my time and energy to Jesus is exactly what I need to do to stop from feeling worried and overwhelmed. He is the only one with the strength I need. So, I pray that Jesus would take my life because I don't have the strength to do what I need most.

It's kind of like saying I don't have energy to make myself coffee in the morning when I know that coffee is the one thing that can wake me up.
