And the cycle goes again...
|
Typical story of
|
A good man,
|
Giving God glory.
|
He's a God fearing man,
|
Perfect husband,
|
Excellent pops and he finally received that raise...
|
Cash in the bank!
|
Yeah, they were saving up.
|
He and his wifey been fussing,
|
It's time for making up.
|
The recessions been digging in you,
|
It's been really rough,
|
But he believes his change is here to stay.
|
It was a Thursday night, April first.
|
He's sitting there in traffic on his way home from work.
|
He checks his voicemail it's his mother.
|
She's got multiple lumps in her breast and they hurt.
|
She wants him to pray that it's not cancerous.
|
Broke the news to your daddy and he's takin it the worst.
|
Cause honestly she knew for many years,
|
But she didn't want the family to panic over her,
|
So he prays:
|
"God save her, Lord I know that you are able,
|
I'm lifting up my heart to You in prayer,
|
You're a Healer You're the Savior, So save her,
|
So he goes to call the boo to tell her all that happened and to let her know the news.
|
It's looking like it's 6: 22.
|
She should be whipping up the dinner,
|
Got the kiddies home from school,
|
But every time he calls it goes straight to her voicemail
|
"Just leave youri¡í¢¯ number,
|
And I'll get right back to you".
|
He thinks nothing of it and he cruises the rest of the way trying to clear his mind.
|
He pulls into the house,
|
He's so unfocused.
|
Walks right in he's wondering "why was the front door wide open? "
|
Goes to the living room,
|
There's two men holding guns to his family's face: his wife,
|
His youngest and his oldest.
|
They yelling "get the money,
|
Hit the floor man! "
|
He pulls the money out he kneels down and says,
|
"Just go, man! "
|
The robber kneels down to get the dough
|
And forgets his fingers on the trigger
|
And he accidentally blows and [gunshot]
|
Jesus, can You even see us?
|
I gave You all of me because I thought You could protect us,
|
Lead us and direct us.
|
But you can't even keep us safe from violence and diseases,
|
I'm really wanting to believe in You,
|
But I need a reason to trust You after this one...
|
Because You let me down, because You let me down
|
Then God says,
|
I am the Lord your God,
|
There's majesty and splendor round about Me.
|
It's very sad, but true,
|
That very often your faith fails you and you doubt Me.
|
Woe oh oh.
|
But I'm so sovereign and above,
|
I give you power to believe you're all in control,
|
But I'm SUPER!
|
And I'mi¡í¢¯ set to show Myself so strong in a realm of the living that leaves the whole world In a stupor.
|
And by the way I caused the bullet shot to ricochet right back into the shooter!
