Light

Even when it seems dark, HIS LIGHT is still shining; we just need to be patient until we can see it.

  1. Loved this…and the comment from DeanJBaker…I’ve had Bob Dylan’s ‘Slow Train Coming’ lyrics going through my mind this week…Bob had a real wake up call anointing in his writing in the late 1980s…and few seemed to listen…

  2. Dulcinea… some words from my friend Bob, and his song

    “When You Gonna Wake Up ?”

    God don’t make promises that He don’t keep
    You got some big dreams baby, but in order to dream you gotta still be asleep.

    When you gonna wake up, when you gonna wake up
    When you gonna wake up strengthen the things that remain ?

    Counterfeit philosophies have polluted all of your thoughts
    Karl Marx has got ya by the throat, Henry Kissinger’s got you tied up in knots.

    When you gonna wake up, when you gonna wake up
    When you gonna wake up strengthen the things that remain ?

    You got innocent men in jail, your insane asylums are filled
    You got unrighteous doctors dealing drugs that’ll never cure your ills.

    When you gonna wake up, when you gonna wake up
    When you gonna wake up strengthen the things that remain ?

    You got men who can’t hold their peace and woman who can’t control their tongues
    The rich seduce the poor and the old are seduced by the young.

    When you gonna wake up, when you gonna wake up
    When you gonna wake up strengthen the things that remain ?

    Adulterers in churches and pornography in the schools
    You got gangsters in power and lawbreakers making rules.

    When you gonna wake up, when you gonna wake up
    When you gonna wake up strengthen the things that remain ?

    Spiritual advisors and gurus to guide your every move
    Instant inner peace and every step you take has got to be approved.

    When you gonna wake up, when you gonna wake up
    When you gonna wake up strengthen the things that remain ?

    Do you ever wonder just what God requires ?
    You think He’s just an errand boy to satisfy your wandering desires.

    When you gonna wake up, when you gonna wake up
    When you gonna wake up and strengthen the things that remain ?

    You can’t take it with you and you know that it’s too worthless to be sold
    They tell you, ‘Time is money’ as if your life was worth its weight in gold.

    When you gonna wake up, when you gonna wake up
    When you gonna wake up and strengthen the things that remain ?

    There’s a man up on a cross and He’s been crucified for you
    Believe in His power that’s about all you got to do.

    When you gonna wake up, when you gonna wake up
    When you gonna wake up and strengthen the things that remain ?

    (c) Bob Dylan

  3. Just want to say how much I appreciate you, and your affirming, faith-based blog (I’m so glad I learned about it through Kate, at Believe Anyway). This morning I was feeling kind of “gray of heart”–just temporarily, you know–and I came here to find HIS light shining full and warm for me, and everyone who visits! Wonderful, Amazing Grace–God bless you. love, sis Caddo

    • I am convinced that this post was meant for you, too. I know that others will read it and receive a touch, but know that you were having a “gray of heart” moment, and that this “little post” helped you, makes my heart smile :D Thank you, again, for sharing :)
