...fighting to stay open

Today on my way home from work, Like a Lake by Sarah Groves came on my iPod. Without going into details, let's just say it spoke directly to my heart and where I am right now. Thank you Lord for using music to minister to me.
I tried to find a YouTube video but couldn't. Try going here, to Sara Grove's myspace page. You will have to scroll down the page until you find track no. 9, and you can stream it directly from there.
Like a Lake:
so much hurt and preservation
like a tendril round my soul so much painful information no clear way on how to hold it when everything in me is tightening curling in around this ache I will lay my heart wide open like the surface of a lake wide open like a lake standing at this waters edge looking in at God's own heart I've no idea where to begin to swallow up the way things are everything in me is drawing in closing in around this pain I will lay my heart wide open like the surface of a lake wide open like a lake bring the wind and bring the thunder bring the rain till I am tried when it's over bring me stillness let my face reflect the sky and all the grace and all the wonder of a peace that I can't fake wide open like a lake everything in me is tightening curling in around this ache I am fighting to stay open I am fighting to stay open open open oh wide open open like a lake
