This is the Stuff

This song was written for me. As I was driving home tonight, the tune caught my attention, and then the lyrics shouted to me. "I lost my keys in the great unknown." Sadly, that statement is 100% true. In fact tomorrow, the truck will be towed to the dealership so a new key can be made.

Even the next line tags me spot on. So I had to share. It's another moment, when I feel "not enough" and then I am reminded, I'm in the same boat as millions of other people. :) If I sink, at least I'm in good company. But I'm trying to remember to pray more often for that life preserver. And remember all the ways I'm blessed. Because I am soooooo BLESSED!

K-Love is a christian radio network that plays in our area and that's where I heard it. If you want to listen to the tune, stop the music player at the bottom of my blog and go to Lyrics Mania and click the play arrow on the left side of the window.

This is the Stuff by Francesca Battistelli

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 is the 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 fines 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 is the 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
Someone save me
In the middle of my little mess
I forget how big I'm blessed
This is the stuff that gets under my skin
And I've 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
