A FIRM grasp on life....choking your life right out?

I don't know about you but my kids were all born with a firm grasp. I'd put my finger in their little grasp and they cling on tight. Infact my oldest decided before she was born to grab on to her umbilical cord and hold so tight she cut off her oxygen supply -giving us and the doctor a pretty good scare. Are you gripping so tight onto life that you are literally choking off your life?
Let go of your life and trust in the faith, hope and love that you were given.

Here is a little poem to show you what I mean.

Tired of the rules of this life? Settling for a house with no windows and no view?
You want to play that superhero song but not sure what that superhero song is or what it should be about?
You want to jump through this atmosphere of boredom.
Words of love
Words of life
Come and get me.
Cruising down the runway of life with no flight path?
Only cancellations and none available?
Fingers always etching for a new channel?
I am a man in a strange world.
Words of love
Words of life
Come and get me.
Are you WHERE you want to be? But how do I know WHERE is when HERE is a question mark in this sidewalk of gorilla glue of this so called life?
Tired of the mellow drama?
The hype of the roller coasters getting to be the pits?
Thoughts always seem to circle back the same way?
You understand sometimes people always gotta do it the hard way.
The simple pleasures don't me that much?
You question where all these pieces come together?
Words of love
Words of Life
Come and get me.
Tired of temporary and looking for that joy?
Given up and don't know how to go back?
Let go of your life. Watch the tatters be sown back together and restored.
There are no hits and runs with God. He remember who you are even if you don't.
Now give Him a full never ending access pass.
Words of love
Words of life
Come and get me.
Tied to religion were you feel like you lost the taste of life?
What do you want?
Do you want to smile in the twang of a happy melody?
Do you want to find meaning in life again?
You want to cry "Don't box me in!"
You want to put your trust in mere human hands or place it where life began?
To dance, sing, and laugh again.
Words of love
Words of life
Come and get me...in Jesus name

God's love is gracious, deep, wide and can bridge any gap you feel inside.

We all need to reflect sometimes and see how hard we are holding on to life? Then we will see that we need some help from God in this "life" department.
