This is the Stuff

When was the last time you heard a song that just hit home?  I think it was a little over a year ago that I heard this song and it just seemed to fit my life so well.  Yesterday as I was driving home from the grocery store, the song came on the radio again.  It had been months since I had heard it, but it was exactly the reminder I was in need of.  "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."

Some of the challenges I'm faced with each day are not ones I would necessarily pick, but it's the stuff God is using to teach me and mold me into the person He wants me to be.  And I believe He DOES know exactly what He is doing.

This is the Stuff

by Francesca Batistelli

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 i site 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 find 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 i site 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 that's getting to me lately

In the middle of my little mess

I forget how big I'm blessed

This i site 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

Oh Oh Oh Oh 

This is the stuff you use
