Change:

It's been a while since I've posted on here, apart from books. Why? Just a lot going on. Job changing and having to move from Raleigh to Houston. Lots of mixed emotions. Also, todays teaching at Church was about being grateful through the change and not just wait for the final destination.

Change

One thing is certain
In the world we live in:
Change!
Republicans run Congress today
Two years time, Democrats:
Change!
Super Bowl Champions
Next year first pick in the draft:
Change!
Summer to autumn
Winter to spring:
Change!
One day we wake up healthy
The next sick:
Change!
Every minute somewhere, someone
Will experience without question:
Change!
And yet so many have still
To fall to their knees to experience:
Change!
The only one that matters
And gave all to The Cross:
THE Change!!


Easy

If it were easy
And there was no doubt
How would we trust?

If it were easy
And we got everything we wanted
How would we be grateful?

If it were easy
To live in Holiness
How would there be grace?

If it were easy
To do right on our own
Where would The Cross be?
