Jill Scott's "Hear My Call"

So I haven't been as current on music as I would like to be.  My old laptop went out back in 2007 and I never got it fixed.  I've been using the hubby's personal and work laptops when they are available.  Now I've got my MacBook, and I'm starting to download and listen to music much more frequently (as much I possibly can in the five days that I've had the Mac, lol).  I came across Jill Scott's new song, "Hear My Call" a couple of days ago.  Check out the lyrics below.


"Hear My Call"
[Verse 1]
Here I am again asking questions,
Waiting to be moved.
I am so unsure of my perception,
What I thought I knew I don't seem to
Where is the turn so I can get back to what I believe in?
Back to the old me and

[Chorus]
God, please hear my call.
I am afraid for me.
Love has burned me raw
I need your healing
Please, please, please.

[Verse 2]
I am such a fool
How did I get here?
Played by all the rules
Then they changed
I am but a child to your vision
Standing in the cold and the rain
Lost here in the dark
I can't see my foot to take a step,
What is happening?
Oh, this hurts so bad. I can hardly breathe.
I just want to leave so...

[Chorus]
God, please hear my call.
I am afraid for me.
Love has burned me raw
I need your healing
Please,
God, please hear my call.
I am afraid for me.
Love has burned me raw
I need your healing
Please, please, oh, please, please.

God please hear my call.
I am afraid.
Love has turned me cold,
I need your healing.
Please, please, please, please, please, please.


How many of us can actually acknowledge when a situation or a series of situations in our lives has angered us, changed us, made us cold, or as Jill put it burned you raw? Do we acknowledge that we need to reflect, regroup, and heal, or do we jump into other situations (relationships, jobs, etc.) with the same hang-ups?


I sure hope we are taking the time to reflect and heal...
