people of God - Gungor
we could have tongues of angels
we could move mountains with our faith
we could give everything away
but if we don't have love
we're left with nothing
we could see blind eyes opened
know all the mysteries of our faith
we could sing all the highest praise
but if we don't have love
we're left with nothing
people of God rise up
rise up and shine God's love
we are the light of the world
of the world oh
we are the light of the world
of the world oh
love is the what holds it all together
love never fails, it never dies
there is no deeper truth
we know that God is love, our God is love
tear down the walls that divide us
let love rebuild and unite us
all we need is
all we need is love
our job as future counselors is to instill hope in people... hope in their situation... hope in their future... hope... but i struggle... if ethically i cannot share Jesus... where is there hope without Jesus. i'm just telling them they could do it all on their own... but they can't. they need Jesus. Lord as i wrestle with this, let me see how you are going to use me in all this... i want to be bold in truth, i want to share Christ, the only hope in life, i don't want to live in fear... but there has to be a balance somewhere in all this right?? my heart is heavy with the task set before me...
i put this song because... i like how it says, "people of God rise up... rise up and shine God's love... we are the light of the world..."
you see as i study hard to be a counselor and i learn all the rules of dos and don'ts and what i'm supposed to in a session... i think of this... how we are to be the light of the world... that means in my office as well. as i see clients... i am to be the light. Lord teach me on how to do that... your truth should not be hidden no matter what laws say or what persecutions may come with... not that we should not respect that, but you are above all that... and as i press into you... i pray that i will have wisdom and discernment to be your light led by the spirit that lives in me.
