A
Flash
Of light
Star light star
Bright, shining over
Bethlehem tonight, I wish
I could let the whole world know
That He came to this earth to let His light show.
If I could say it with words, would you even hear? Would you stop
Long enough or run fast with fear? He came to this earth to touch your hearts
Of stone. He came to this earth so you wouldn't be alone. But you want to live your lives
How you want to live. Believing in promises that weren't yours to give. Still you are lonely,
lost and afraid. You fill up the voids with things that you made. Yellow star sitting high
Way up in the sky. You speak so loudly yet we just pass you by. Some have
Noticed but never asked what...what must we do, we just stay in our rut.
How sad you must be as you watch us pass by.
You have the answers, He holds the key, but
We don't want to offend so we pretend
Not to see. We don't see til'
It's convenient for us
To complain.
Then we
Search
For a
Way
To
Give
Him
All the
Blame.
Reading today's passage I am convicted by how quickly I am able to blame God when things don't go as I would like. With my father's memorial service is tomorrow, I am struggling with why God took him from me. We like to point to Judas as the betrayer, but we all betray God when we accuse him of not loving us. Go to him today and ask for forgiveness, and praise him for his mercy as he sustains us each day even through our doubts and betrayals.
