rediscovering eden
Who am I, that the Lord of all the earth
Would care to know my name
Would care to feel my hurt
Who am I, that the bright and morning Star
Would choose to light the way
For my ever wandering heart
Not because of who I am
But because of what You've done
Not because of what I've done
But because of who You are
I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean
A vapor in the wind
Still You hear me when I'm calling
Lord, You catch me when I'm falling
And You've told me who I am
I am Yours, I am Yours
Who Am I, that the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love
And watch me rise again
Who Am I, that the voice that calmed the sea
Would call out through the rain
And calm the storm in me
Whom shall I fear
Whom shall I fear
I am Yours
who we are
Most happening...

Hey urbies..
God showed me something the other day.
I've begun to see what it means.
The unsaved, (our previous selves), are like people in a big black box.
Everything's dark. But you don't realise you're enclosed in this thing.
You don't know that there is actually something outside this dark covering.
And then somebody comes along and shares a little about Jesus to you.
When that happens, its like a hole is being punched into your box.
You begin to see a glimpse of the light from outside.
For some, they take a step towards the hole to explore what is there.
Some get so absorbed by it, they push through the remainder walls of this box.
Others may not like the change.
They try to ignore the light, they look away, they shut their eyes.
But the hole is still there. They try to live with it.
Yet others may have situations that build up the thickness of this black box.
The hole hasn't done much damage, its just a small puncture.
But I believe that if we push on, continue to share, continue to testify, what we are doing is punching more holes into their black box.
We are building that bridge between God and the unsaved.
One day, all walls will rupture.
And when that day comes, the light will be too comforting, too bright and joyous to ignore.
Heaven will sing as yet another child of God is set free.
Look around you,
How many people are living unaware of the better life?
Don't be selfish.
Share the freedom.
Go punch your holes and have an awesome week.
Love,
Bea
