Francesca Battistelli quotes:

I don't need my name in lights I'm famous in my Father's eyes Make no mistake He knows my name.

Now there's a joy inside I can't contain But even perfect days can end in rain And though it's pouring down I see You through the clouds Shining on my face.

Things aren't always what they seem You're only seeing part of me There's more than you could ever know Behind the scenes.

In the middle of my little mess, I forget how BIG I'm blessed!

The more you walk in relationship with the Lord, the more you learn to trust him. I'm learning not to focus so much on the issues I think are so big right now-our bus has broken down, or someone said something that frustrated me. I'm learning to slowly let things roll off my back, to say, 'Hey, God knew about this before it happened and He's got a way out or a plan better than mine.' I've learned to stop freaking out and just trust that God knows what he's doing. He's not going to leave me in a bad place because He never has before.

I'm reminded today how unpredictable God can be.
