"The shackles have been lifted... Live"
How much of ourselves would be left if we made it a priority to daily give our whole selves to God? What would our lives be like if we were truly committed to being content to doing the work He wants to accomplish through us and all this being done in His timing not ours?

"There's No Such Thing As Perfect"
I've tried so many times
to get things right they just had to be great
And I know that never works
It builds my pride not my faith
So I surrender this part
I give you all my heart
There's no such thing as perfect
It doesn't even happen
But if you give your heart to Jesus
Things will happen
The only thing that matters
Is a heart for God in serving
It gains eternal value
And when things get rough...
It stops the searching.

"They that Wait Upon the Lord"
Isaiah 40:31 - But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run and not be weary; and they shall walk and not faint. (KJV)
One of the most difficult places God will take you is by telling your heart this.
"I know you want certain things, even at times feel you need things such as a relationship, or feel there's a relationship that needs to be mended. But you have to trust me.
You have to trust that my timing is the best. And in the mean time while you are waiting to hear from me: I will teach you what it means to serve, in all things be cheerful, and develop a strong devotional and prayer life. When it's all over (your own tailor made boot camp) you will see I was in control the entire time.
I just wanted to see you love me with your life. Not just with words-with action. Loving me is the way you treat people who you feel have wronged you. It's about breaking down that wall of pride. Focusing on more than just hurt feelings or emotional frustration. Serving me is about being a soldier. It's about seeing the "Big Picture". Me.
