And the problem is this
We were bought with a kiss
But the cheek still turned
Even when it wasn't hit
And I don't know
What to do with a love like that
And I don't know
How to be a love like that
When all the love in the world
Is right here among us
And hatred too
And so we must choose
What our hands will do
Where there is pain
Let there be grace
Where there is suffering
Bring serenity
For those afraid
Help them be brave
Where there is misery
Bring expectancy
And surely we can change
Surely we can change
Something
And the problem it seems
Is with you and me
Not the Love Who came
To repair everything
Where there is pain
Let us bring grace
Where there is suffering
Bring serenity
For those afraid
Let us be brave
Where there is misery
Let us bring them relief
And surely we can change
Oh, surely we can change
Something
Oh, the world's about to change
The whole world's about to change
i really like the simple truth of this song. it reminds me of what i need to be exuding in my life and what i need to be praying for.
tonight i was struck with the truth that I (and everybody else) was made for Him. I was reading Colossians 1:16 and it just really hit me. I mean i think i knew this fact, but haven't really slowed down lately to meditate on it and on the implications of it. i am made for Him. For His pleasure and joy. I am also not His puppet. If i were God i would be very tempted to make something that did exactly what i wanted when i wanted it too. I love that God is not like that. What is the deeper meaning of the verse all things have been created by Him and for Him? What does it imply about our lives? How does He want us to respond to Him when we understand this truth?
