I wrote this yesterday

I Am Here by: Regina Pasour (BMI)

Their brother had been sick

But they’d held to the faith

Because they knew the One

That could take it all away

And they kept on believing

Till he drew his final breath

They thought one thing would happen… but instead

Martha went out to meet Him

As she heard Him approach

And told Him how they’d waited

But now they’d lost their hope

Her sister joined them

And both Mary and Martha said

Lord, if you’d been here, he wouldn’t be dead… and he said

I am here. I am now. And you don’t have to wait until the end to see

I am near.  I allow, some things so you’ll know you can count on Me

It hurts at this moment, but I won’t leave your side

Until this passes over, and every tear’s been cried

Until you’re with Me, in eternity, I am here

The sisters knew that Jesus

Could call up to his Dad

And Jesus felt the pain

That everyone that day had

Dad I know you hear us

To take away the doubt

He shouted, “Lazarus come out”

You may have seen death of some sort in your life

And you may be wondering if things will be alright

Close your eyes, and let Him whisper in your ear

How did the "church people" miss what Jesus had done and who He was??  I said this to my class Sunday, "Jesus greatest adversaries were who?"  That's right those in the church.  We're willing sometimes to miss out on praise as long as we feel proper.  I'm not going to give specifics cause what goes on in Vision, stays in Vsion, but Sunday we had a blue jeans discussion.  A person in class was going to wear blue jeans, but felt it wasn't acceptable so they didn't.  Is it ok?  For alot of people, no.  But I am so totally serious, I don't for a moment think that Jesus would've looked slovenly, or dishoveled, but I'm not so sure he wouldn't have a look that was well.....not in a suit and tie.   Don't know, not claiming to, just wondering.  But even the fact the we're having this discussion shows that the more things change, the more they stay the same.  This sort of thing was a problem then, and it still is.  Well, it is if we allow it to be, and most of us do.  So, go ahead to be looking for me Sunday.  I'm telling ya now, I'm wearing jeans.  Maybe overalls next Sunday, we'll just have to wait and see.
