Music to My Ears

I love music and feel that a lot of lyrics speak to me or reveal exactly how I am feeling right now.  I recently heard a new song on the radio by Francesca Battistelli.  It is called "This is the Stuff."  I feel like it really hits home in my life right now.  Kevin is working on his doctorate, looking for a part time job and we currently are down to one car.  I also am ready to be a mother but because of other circumstances in our life right now, it's not the best time.  I find myself complaining a lot but this song reminds me that I am blessed.  I have it really well in life and the things that aren't going well in life are all of part of God's plan.  And as Francesca says it, "But I gotta trust You know exactly what You're doing.  It might not be what I choose, but this is the stuff You use."  

This song ministered to me so much that I have posted the lyrics for you to enjoy.  You should also check it out on iTunes or YouTube.

I lost my keys in the great unknown
And call me please 'Cuz I can't find my phone

This is the stuff that drives me crazy
This is the stuff that's getting to me lately
In the middle of my little mess
I forget how big I'm blessed
This is the stuff that gets under my skin
But I gotta trust You know exactly what You're doing
It might not be what I would choose
But this is the stuff You use

45 in a 35
Sirens and fines while I'm running behind
Whoa

This is the stuff that drives me crazy
This is the stuff that's getting to me lately
In the middle of my little mess
I forget how big I'm blessed
This is the stuff that gets under my skin
But I gotta trust You know exactly what You're doing
It might not be what I would choose
But this is the stuff You use

So break me of impatience
Conquer my frustrations
I've got a new appreciation
It's not the end of the world
Oh Oh Oh

This is the stuff that drives me crazy
This is the stuff
Someone save me
In the middle of my little mess
I forget how big I'm blessed
This is the stuff that gets under my skin
And I've gotta trust You know exactly what You're doing
It might not be what I would choose
But this is the stuff You use

Oh Oh Oh Oh
This is the stuff You use
