We Don't Need a Weatherman...
...thanks, Bob Dylan,
To know which way the wind blows;
When we come across someone
Who has Christ at the center
Of his thoughts and life,
We know, oh how we know.
And tell me it isn't a thrill
To find those like-minded.
But still,
The object of what we're doing
(I remind myself)
Is not solely to bless those
Who already feel as we do --
Though getting to live
For Him is wonderful --
But to so live our lives
That others may wonder,
What causes that person
To be radiating such
Joy and lovingkindness?
And when they ask,
To be able to tell them
What is blessing us so greatly,
To be this very day
A reflector of that light
Jesus talks about,
Which cannot be hid,
And just may cause one
To seek things higher,
Ending up with a heart
For our great King on fire.
Can you think of anything
In this world more glorious?
