Do We all wonder????...
(Submitted by COLBY)
You say this Christ is coming back for you and you Christians are building your life on something you've never seen before.
Well, where is He? How come He hasn't come back yet?
And the answer that the Lord gives to that is, I am not slow concerning my promise, but I am not willing that any should perish.
And the only reason God's waiting, is not 'cause He wants to extend our suffering, extend our pain, but because He wants to extend His mercy to more people who can find His truth.
So when that question comes up or all the other questions that come up into our lives, I wanna encourage you and dare you, where ever you are on the spectrum of belief in God...
whether you've never even begun or whether you've been following for as long as you can remember.
I dare you to run toward God with those questions because He's big enough to hold us..
while we're waiting for the answers.
-- None of us knows
And this makes it a mystery
If life is a comedy
Then why all the tragedy?
Well, three and a half pounds of brain try to figure out
What this world is all about
And is there an eternity?
Is there an eternity?
God, if you're there
I wish you'd show me
And God, if you care
Then I need you to know me
I hope you don't mind me asking the questions
But I, figure you're big enough
Lying on pillows
We're haunted and half awake
Does anyone hear us pray?
If I die before I wake...
Well, then the morning comes
And the mirrors another place
Where we wrestle face to face
With the image of deity
God, if you're there
I wish you'd show me
And God, if you care
Then I need you to know me
I hope you don't mind me asking the questions...
But I figure you're big enough
When I imagine the size of the universe
And I wonder what's out past the edges
Then I discover inside me a space as big
And believe that I'm meant to be Filled up with more than just questions
So, God, if you're there
I wish you'd show me
And God, if you care
Then I need you to know me...
I hope you don't mind me asking the questions
But I figure you're big enough
'Cause I am not big enough...
(Editor's Note: I have been friends with my brother and web son, Colby for almost 2 years now and have seen alot of changes in him, and the thoughts placed on this page are thoughts we all have pondered and I am thankful that we do have a God who is big enough, and also knows how helpless we are without Him, to understand why we ask what we do! Thanks again, Colby, I really enjoyed this....)
