Standing on the Edge of Me

Do you ever get the feeling like you are standing on the verge of something amazing, something life changing. I feel like I am in that position right now. There are so many things in my life right now that are new, things that I've never experienced before.

As I count down the days to my internship I am both sad and excited. I am sad to leave school, family and friends yet I know that I will see everyone again in a few short months. I'm sad because I have just started a new relationship and I have to put it on hold until I come back but I am excited that he is willing to wait...I hope I'm worth it.

I am excited because I want to see and experience everything that God has for me. I'm excited not only for the experience itself but the growth that will occur. My life is going to be changed...forever.

The title of this post is from a song called "On Fire" by Switchfoot. I feel like I'm standing on the edge of everything that God wants for me, the edge of everything that I could become. I can't just stand on the edge...I must go, take that step. Here are some of the lyrics of the song...

Give me one more time around; give me one more chance to see.
Give me everything you are; give me one more chance to be near you.
When everything inside me looks like everything I hate,
You are the hope I have of change; you are the only chance I’ll take.

When I’m on fire when You’re near me,
I’m on fire when You speak,
I’m on fire burning at these mysteries

I’m standing on the edge of me; I’m standing on the edge of me.
I’m standing on the edge of me; I’m standing on the edge of me.
I’m standing on the edge of everything that I’ve never been before.
And I’m standing on the edge of me, standing on the edge,

And I’m on fire when You’re near me,
I’m on fire when You speak,
I’m on fire burning at these mysteries, these mysteries, these mysteries…
You’re a mystery
