Stumbling blocks

It is crazy annoying how the devil puts little thing after little thing in the way to see if he can distract us from what we are supposed to be doing. He has been doing this consistently since I left the states. To be completely honest I am a little fed up. I refuse to let any of this get in the way, but this is a lot easier said than done. I was a little grumpy about it all this evening and went up to the top deck and just sat. I love sitting up there, sometimes I swear I can feel God in the wind off the ocean. I was listening to music and this song spoke right to me so I thought I would share some of the lyrics that spoke to me. The song is called Surely We Can Change by David Crowder Band.

And the problem is this
We were bought with a kiss
But the cheek still turned
Even when it wasn't hit

And I don't know
What to do with a love like that
And I don't know
How to be a love like that

When all the love in the world
Is right here among us
And hatred too
And so we must choose
What our hands will do

Where there is pain
Let us bring grace
Where there is suffering
Bring serenity
For those afraid
Let us be brave
Where there is misery
Let us bring them relief

And surely we can change
Surely we can change
Oh surely we can change
Something

Oh, the world's about to change
The whole world's about to change
