children of light

It's been 2 seasons since I've followed
and there's no reason for this sorrow
The drops outside seem so persistent.
When will these clouds subside and leave some room for air

And where's the light I found six months ago?
It's been obscured from all these gray skies in my mind.
been trying so hard to set my mind on things above
been trying so hard to learn to love

and sometimes I just gotta scream
cus the walls keep closing in and I'm stuck in between
but I feel I'm on the edge of the shadow

I'm stepping out in faith
into the light
You're breaking all these chains
binding my heart
And I'm starting to feel free again
as I begin to breathe You in
I'm stepping out in faith
into Your glorious light.

My life is fading with the hourglass
and it keeps changing as the years pass
People enter in and exit
and the draft from the open door gives me chills tonight

So come and fill me with Your warm embrace
Break down my walls so I can see the sun one last time
Still trying so hard to set my mind on things above
The world behind me and it's You I love

And I confess
that I'm a mess

And I confess (that you are the answer)
that I'm a mess (this pride is my cancer)
And I confess (And now I'm trying so hard to)
that I'm a mess (lay my burdens before You)

I'm chasing the sun and seeking light

the ONE who NEVER changes

We change all the time. We're constantly on this journey and, if we have our hearts and minds set on things above, we're constantly trying to form our lives to that of Jesus. He is our model that we are to follow. But this means that we are never to stay the same. We will never fully be perfect until our Father has called us home, so we cannot be satisfied in our sinfulness.

So, we're constantly shifting away from our humanness and towards the Spirit. This says a lot about who we are, but it says even more about who GOD is. He NEVER changes. God is already perfect and He cannot change anymore for the good. That's an amazing thing to think about if you actually ponder it. From the time we were formed in our mother's womb until the day we die God has not changed one bit. He will always be the Almighty, the Maker of everything, the Savior in our lives.

In every trial and in every joy we can still say that God is who He is and He still has the wonderful ability to save us. He has the full right to be arrogant and ignorant of us and let us die. But He's humbled Himself and taken the form of man, and He is nearer to us than we can ever imagine.

So we can sing, "All of my life, in EVERY season, YOU ARE STILL GOD!"
