Letting go of "self"

by Rick Oraham  
10/27/2007 / Christian Living

Why is it that I won't let go of "self" -
Stop boxing God up and putting Him on a shelf?
I've got a hole in my soul that only He can fill
But even still it's hard to surrender my will
I know He loves me and in Him I should trust
I better figure it out before I turn to dust
The things I use to try and fill this void
Leave me feeling hopeless, guilty, and paranoid
How many times must I bump my head to learn
That He's the only answer and to Him I must turn?
