I wish I was more of a man, have you ever felt that way?

Posted by Cody on July 16, 2009

great lyrics:

I wish I was more of a man
Have you ever felt that way
And if I had to tell you the truth
I’m afraid I’d have to say
That after all I’ve done and failed to do
I feel like less than I was meant to be
And what if I could fix myself
Maybe then I could get free
I could try to be somebody else
Whose much better off than me
But I need to remember this
That it’s when I’m at my weakest
I can clearly see

He made the lame walk
And the dumb talk
He opened blinded eyes to see
That the sun rises on His time
Yet He knows our deepest desperate need
And the world waits
While His heart aches
To realize the dream
I wonder what life would be like
If we let Jesus live through you and me

 

random: hear new David Crowder cover of “How He loves”  I thought it was neat to see a song ACF did come full circle to mainstream Christian world

 

Is grace always enough or is there a level of repentance mandatory?

 

I wonder what my maximum time in a row of letting God live through me was? 15 mins? an hour? more? less?

 

It is easy to doubt, to be skeptical, to complain, to argue, to ignore somethings wrong, to become numb, to make excuses.

It is simply hard to not do those things. when faith doesn’t feel enough, we slip. When God’s strength doesn’t feel enough, we slip. When we don’t believe our weakness is getting any struggle, we slip.

 

I’m convince God is bigger than our emotions, than our excuses, than our “make-it-up-as-we-go Christianity.”….but what does that look like on a day-to-day basis?

 

Believing that there is no God and that Science is all there is, is quite frankly the stupidest thing you could ever do as a human being proclaiming to any amount of intelligence. It’s the personal God that is so tough to reconcile with.
