Who am I?
That the voice that calmed the sea,
Would call out through the rai
n,
And calm the storm in me


So for the last while I've been feeling kinda deprived. I feel like people only know me at face value, and I want to change that. But some people aren't as comfortable with having serious conversations with others, as some are. So it's kinda hard to bring it up and just be like "so i want you to know me more" and then proceed with my life story... and I was getting frustrated because I kept thinking that other people should be putting more of an effort in to it themselves, trying to get to know me more.....and they haven't been. But that's stubborn of me, I should put myself out there and be available for confrontation of such issues. I have the responsibility to play a role in the whole transition from face value to something deeper, but I sit around and just expect people to come to me. Then I wonder if I'm approachable or not... but anyways, this is me saying I want more depth, and I'm willing to talk about anything anyone ever wants to discuss.

The verse above blew me away today. I have listened to that song over and over again because I think it's amazing, it's one of my favourite songs, but I hadn't noticed the words to that part before...
Calmed the storm in ME.
God is the master of the universe, He has everything at His disposal and yet he puts it all aside to take time out with me. He takes a REAL interest in the little things going on inside of me, and He calms the little turmoil in my heart....the storm within me is nothing compared to the real storms He calms, but it's not too trivial for Him. Nothing is too little for Him. He cares about every detail, and He knows me inside out.
Here I am sitting, wishing someone would just take the time to care enough about the little details in my life, and to ask me how I'm REALLY doing....and there God is, saying "my child, I do that daily. Here I am."
