If this is not a place where tears are understood, Then where shall I go to cry? And if this is not a place where my spirit can take wings, Then where shall I go to fly? I don't need another place for trying to impress you With just how good and virtuous I am. I don't need another place for always being on top of things; Everybody knows that it's a sham. I don't need another place for always wearing smiles, Even when it's not the way I feel. I don't need another place to mouth the same old platitudes; Everybody knows that it's not real. So if this is not a place where my questions can be asked, Then where shall I go to seek? And if this is not a place where my heart cry can be heard, Where, tell me where, shall I go to speak? So if this is not a place where tears are understood, Where shall I go, where shall I go to fly? -- Ken Medema
And the One in Charge doesn't even need a Title, even though we have given Him many.
ReplyDeleteThat was a wonderful service this morning. I especially like Pastor Loretta's comments about Jesus' new commandment to us from John 13:34. If we all followed that a little more closely I don't think there would be the dissention in the Church or the world for that matter that we see today.
Your Packers ROCKED today, beating a team Brett had never beaten before - - - the Chiefs.
ReplyDeleteMy Colts are rocking too - - - but it's only halftime. I'm so near heart failure I had to come up here during halftime to try to calm down!!!
I wish I could have heard the wonderful service this morning. Unfortunately, most trouble in the Churches is caused by the so-called leaders with titles who forget that HE is really in charge.
ReplyDeleteI think when we all realize that we are not in charge, life is simplified!
ReplyDeleteI like the Packers, but my Lions are Hot on their trail, just like Michigsan is Hot on Ohio States trail.
What an inbteresting football year.
