A Flaw in the Matrix
Yesterday I developed a twitch in my lower left eyelid. Don't you hate that? Well I used to, anyway- but I'm starting to develop a sense of humor. Let's face it, ever since the garden incident back when time began, our bodies have had a tendency to malfunction about as much as my mother's computer. (This is A LOT.) So last night while the kids took their bath and I stared at my twitching lid in the bathroom mirror- and man, can that thing boogie- I got the strong sense that God was laughing at me...or at least grinning. This robotic twitching just has to be a practical joke He plays on us to make sure we're paying attention- and because He knows we need to lighten up and laugh at ourselves more often. For our health. (Good for the blood pressure.) Yet on a more somber note, I'm led to think of Casting Crowns and Who am I...
Who am I
That the Lord of all the earth,
Would care to know my name,
Would care to feel my hurt,
Who am I
That the Bright and Morning Star,
Would choose to light the way,
For my ever wandering heart,
Not because of who I am,
But because of what You've done,
Not because of what I've done,
But because of who You are,
I am a flower quickly fading,
Here today and gone tomorrow,
A wave tossed in the ocean,
A vapor in the wind,
Still You hear me when I'm calling,
Lord, You catch me when I'm falling,
And You've told me who I am.. I am Yours.
Who am I
That the eyes that see my sin,
Would look on me with love,
and watch me rise again,
Who am I
That the voice that calmed the sea,
Would call out through the rain,
And calm the storm in me,
Whom shall I fear? Whom shall I fear? 'Cause I am Yours...I am Yours.
