Lyric of The Day

Things Like You by Sanctus Real
"loving things like you has wrecked my life / made me cry / loving things like you has made me lose my mind / and I can't figure out why I've been hanging on / to all these things I've tried to leave behind me for so long // and I think it's time to find / a better way to live my life / than loving all those things that keep me wrapped so tight // everyone wants everyone else's everything / sometimes the more we have the less we really gain / i'm tired of loving all that money has to buy / get out of my heart, out of my mind / leaving you behind //why are we obsessed with possessions here on earth / go and take a look at the flowers and the birds / God is always taking care of nature's every need / and how much more important in the Father's eyes are we / I said how much more important in the Father's eyes are we? He sees everything"
This is something God's been trying to get through to me for a while now. I'm a bit of a 'stuff' freak sometimes. My hobbies don't help matters. But God has put a few people in my life the last little while who have shown me it's not about what you have, it's about what you do with what you've got. I shouldn't be so concerned about giving stuff away, or helping someone out...it's all God's stuff anyway, he just wants to see what I'm gonna do with it.
