as i procrastinate

so did you really think i'd get through the night before a big test without blogging at least once? silly person. anyway, im coming to realize many things in my life can be classified as a bird stealing bread out from under my nose. the iron and wine song has that line in it.
"do his hands in your hair feel a lot like a thing you believe in,
or a bit like a bird stealing bread out from under your nose?"
there are some things in my life right now that feel so good, but are really stealing life from me. sin. sin is a bird stealing bread. disobedience to God. another bird. so many birds circling my little loaf of bread. there are so many birds circling other's heads too. but i cant take my eyes off my bread. Lord, take my bread from me. i pray that you would help me guard it. Lord, i pray that you would take my life from me. take it from my incapable grip. take it and make it yours...so that none may steal it. so that i may be used by you.
