Hopeless Case- Varnadore

So, I recognize you're amazing
I've known it since the day we met
Oh beautiful, you are my darling
But lately you can't stand yourself

Cause you've been hurt by the world
It's such a painful place to be
Oh but I still see beauty
So darling, don't you fear
I know you're not a hopeless case
And you were meant for more
This is a temporary stay
Don't believe you've gone to far
I'll love you just the same
So please don't run away

So, you're feeling pretty lonely
You are not who you thought you'd be
Well everybody needs forgiveness
Even sometimes from themselves

When you're hurt by the world
Such a painful place to be
Oh but I still see beauty
So darling, don't you fear
I know you're not a hopeless case
And you were meant for more
This is a temporary stay
And don't believe you've gone to far
I'll love you just the same
So please don't run away

You've been scared to face yourself at night
Telling everyone that you're just fine
Tell me what's the use in life if you can't be free

So darling, don't you fear
I know you're not a hopeless case
And you were meant for more
This is a temporary stay
And don't believe you've gone to far
I'll love you just the same
So please don't run away

I'm addicted to...

.. easy/quick fixes.

Examples:
instead of making a sandwich, or rather actually going upstairs and really cooking something, I will instead heat up a thing of soup and eat it with crackers.

I feel alone, so instead of praying and reading my bible, searching for Him...I text someone, get on facebook, etc.

I get tired, so I try to take a quick nap (which usually lasts way long than intended) instead of pushing through and going to sleep earlier at night.


Anyone have suggestions for me about how to specifically overcome this addiction? Verses I can memorize, reminders I can put up?

If you do, it'd be greatly appreciated.

Lord, help me to seek out what is truly good, not what is simply easy.
Through You I can do all things, help this to be true in my life.
with love, to Love. Amen
