brand new day - fireflight

I'm waking up
The world is turning
The sun is shining again
I'm holding on
To things I shouldn't
It's time to let them go
I've been on a losing streak
Hit so hard I couldn't speak
But when I hear Your voice it fades away

And I can hear You say
It's a brand new day
The pain goes away
I'm headed for the door
And I'm going home
I'm going home
I'm going home
I'm going home

Your love, it burns
Away my darkness
You guide me when I'm blind
You are the light
That shines inside me
Showing me I'm
So much more
When I've been on a losing streak
Hit so hard I couldn't speak
But when I hear Your voice it fades away

Take me into Your arms
My home lies within Your heart

I really like the whole idea of living life one day at a time. I think all to often we try to take so much on, and plan so much, and focus so much on the future, that we forget about today. and in all reality, today is what matters. today is what we should live for - because we *never* know about tomorrow. for all we know, we could be dead tomorrow.
so that's what i'm starting to do. i get so worried and exhausted when i think about the future and all the things i'm going to have to deal with.. but when i just focus on today, i'm okay.
today... is such an important word.
today... i'm going to focus on being happy.
today... i'm not going to cut.
today... i'm going to eat healthy.
today... i'm going to exercise.
today... i'm going to trust God with what He's doing with me.
today... i'm going to do the best that i can do.

tomorrow's another story. i don't know what will come.

but today, i am okay.
