I wanna run but i don't know how...

I was listening to the local radio station when this song by Bebo Norman came on. usually, i like Bebo Norman. he has never really touched my life by his music, which means nothing because i tend to not listen to this particular radio station. however, this song that they've been playing like crazy (because they do that...play a song to death), i feel like i just heard it for the first time. now, i'm constantly listening to this song, curtesy of free.napster.com.

The song is called "Pull Me Out."

"Tell me now, when does this start feeling
like I understand everything I’m dealing with
first I was young, now it’s all just happening.
And what about the way I said that
made you turn around and shake your head
like I don’t even know what I’m asking for

This could be all about just letting go
or this could be all about just holding on

I can’t get my feet off of the ground
I wanna run but I don’t know how
can You reach down here and pull me out, can you pull me out, yeah
I wanna scream but there’s no sound
I wanna fly to you somehow
can you reach me here and pull me out, can you pull me out

remember when I was young and hungry,
I could take it in, without much money,
I had nothing at all but dreams and time to kill
and now I feel like I’m treading water
and I’m hardly real - I’m just trying harder
to make my way on the earth by standing still

this could be all about just letting go
or this could be all about just holding on

I can’t get my feet off of the ground
I wanna run but I don’t know how
Can you reach down here and pull me out, can you pull me out, yeah
I wanna scream but there’s no sound
I wanna fly to you somehow
Can you reach me here and pull me out, can you pull me out

not a moment too soon You will be my rescue
but tell me how long will it take?

I can’t get my feet off of the ground
I wanna run but I don’t know how
can you reach down here and pull me out, can you pull me out
I can’t get my feet off of the ground
I wanna run but I don’t know how
Can you reach down here and pull me out, can you pull me out, yeah
I wanna scream but there’s no sound
I wanna fly to you somehow
can you reach me here and pull me out – can you pull me out
can you pull me out? can you reach down and pull me out?"

The reason this song speaks to me is that the bridge is just where i am right now: "This could all be about letting go, or this could be all about holding on."

The chorus screams what i've been screaming:
"i can't get my feet off of the ground. i wanna run but i don't know how. can you reach down here and pull me out, can you pull me out?"

just the fact that Bebo Norman sings this part twice (can you pull me out, can you pull me out, yeah) screams how i've been feeling!

Can you pull me out, Lord....LORD! Please! CAN YOU PULL ME OUT?!?!

I know that God is capable of doing so much, including pulling me out of this situation. but the sheer fact that he hasn't says that he is doing something different. And since i KNOW God's character, i know that it isn't worse than what i am in now. For we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his will (Romans 8:28).

and in this. we are more than conquerers.
