Why Do I Freak Out?

So why do I worry?
Why do I freak out?
God knows what I need
You know what I need
Your love is
Your love is
Your love is strong
Your Love is Strong, Jon Foreman

Hearing this come up on Pandora today served as a gracious reminder of the truth of Isaiah 55:8-9:
"My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts," says the Lord.
"And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine.
For just as the heavens are higher than the earth,
so my ways are higher than your ways
and my thoughts higher than your thoughts." 
Father, it's been a long and hard day (kinda) studying for Bio.
Father, I pray I would continue to assess the state of my heart as I continue to study.
Father, I pray you would continue to give me peace as I go through this material.

Foreman ends his song with the Lord's Prayer, and such sweet words they are - words that remind me my Lord provides for his beloved ones, remains sovereign, and deserves our undying worship.
"Our God in heaven
Hallowed be
Thy name above all names
Your kingdom come
Your will be done
On earth as it is in heaven
Give us today our daily bread
Forgive us weary sinners
Lead us far away from our vices
And deliver us from these prisons."
