In Times of Trauma
Posted: Wednesday, September 21, 2011

Something traumatic happens. We grab for the cell phone and try to call a friend, someone special, and the line is busy. this is not something we want to leave a voice mail about nor play phone tag all day long. Why aren't they available? Why can't they pick up the phone and talk to us?
there is someone we can reach out to who will never be busy or tied up on the other line. We can talk to Jesus, God, the very creator of the universe. That is most incredible when you really think about it a minute.
CRISIS
How can I make sense
When tears flood my logic
And I reach out
But there’s no one there
Only the hollow ringing
Of an empty phone at my ear
Why do I have to bottom out
Before I pour out my heart
To You, My Jesus?
And You were there
Arms waiting open
All the While.
