These are the words of the song called 'Everything' by the group LightHouse which featured on my last post. A young friend who saw it said that if someone who wasn't a Christian saw it, they would be 'converted' there and then: so powerful is the message. I agree that it is a most moving piece of drama that both Christians and non-Christians will be touched by.
Recently I've met many 'backsliders' both young and old, who when asked, would they love to experience again the peace and joy they had when they followed Christ,told me they would.They also acknowledged that they were restless as they tried to find again that same peace and joy through other means- drugs, sex, music, sport etc. But were unable.
As one great Christian once said in a prayer to God: 'You have made us for yourself and our hearts are restless till they find their peace in thee'. I realise that many have been hurt by 'the Church'and have in turn sadly turned away from Christ.
But He still stands at the door of your heart seeking entrance. The most winsome,kind,loving and good personality who ever lived wants to share a life of intimacy with you. Will you let Him in today? If you respond to His invitation please let me know. AK
