I'd forgotten about these lyrics from Rich Mullins, until the song came up today on a playlist I created to send to a friend for her birthday last month. They fit nicely, I think, with the space I'm occupying, and are rather descriptive of the process of fighting and surrender.
Surrender don't come natural to me
I'd rather fight You for something I don't really want
Than to take what You give that I need
And I've beat my head against so many walls
Now I'm falling down, I'm falling on my knees
So hold me Jesus, 'cause I'm shaking like a leaf
You have been King of my glory
Won't You be my Prince of Peace
(Hold Me Jesus, Rich Mullins)
