Sing like you used to, dance like you want to
This morning on my walk, I got this one:
con·vo·lut·ed
/ˈkänvəˌlo͞otid/
Adjective
Extremely complex and difficult to follow.
Intricately folded, twisted, or coiled.
Synonyms
convolute - intricate
This is what we have when we do not have Christ. On my walk this morning I saw low lying clouds heading west, while the rest of the clouds headed east. Lightning and thunder and rain. All kids of things going on. There are so many things flying at us in every kind of direction, there is no possible way we can handle this by ourselves. We must have supernatural help, the kind only God can provide.
The stuff I'm going through right now seems kinda crazy. I got stuff heading east and west at the same time, rumblings, and shocking things. When I tell other people about it they actually can't believe it, they say, how, why? Like Job I just say, "Though He slay me, yet I will praise Him." These things are evil, and I hate these evil things that attack us, but that's why we need the Lord. He is faithful, true, good! He is, after all, God! He controls every circumstance, every situation. He has it all, there is nothing that He does not have! It's crazy without Him, way too convoluted! "Lord, help us to trust in You, all the way, in Jesus Name, amen."
After my walk, this song was on the radio, Need To Breathe, Slumber, I have quoted here in part:
Days they force you
Back under those covers
Lazy mornings they multiply
But glory's waiting
Outside your window
So wake on up from your slumber
And open up your eyes
Tongues are violent
Personal and focused
Tough to beat with
Your steady mind
But hearts are stronger after broken
So wake on up from your slumber
And open up your eyes
All these victims
Stand in line for
The crumbs that fall from the table
Just enough to get by
All the while
Your invitation
Wake on up from your slumber
Come on open up your eyes
Take from vandals
All you want now
But please don't trade it in for life
Replace the feeble
With the fable
Wake on up from your slumber
And open up your eyes
All these victims
Stand in line for
The crumbs that fall from the table
Just enough to get by
All the while
Your invitation
Wake on up from your slumber
Come on open up your eyes
Sing like we used to
Dance when you want to
Taste of the breakthrough
And open wide
All these victims
Stand in line for
The crumbs that fall from the table
Just enough to get by
All the while
Your invitation
Wake on up from your slumber
Come on open up your eyes
Sing like we used to
And dance like you want to
Open up your eyes
The innocence of dancing like we used to, singing like we want to, is a wonderful thought. I love the Lord's timing, it is perfect in every way!
