Had this short one done yesterday – with that nice snow squall while driving, I got three written (by speaking into my phone): the praise one I sent yesterday – one I am saving to release next week (about Subaru’s and valentines)… and this one – which talks about 2nd Peter chapter 3 – God gives each person the time they need to come to repentance….God is patient…and it IS possible!
LET’S LEGO Again / It IS Possible, 05FEB
The praise song lyric: “one thing I am sure of … I was born, you were born, everything was made to worship Him!”
If I flip back in time to one of my first writings – Lego Christianity Piece, 18DEC – I find that it was a short time ago – that is in calendar days but YEARS in mental time. – It is just like written in 2nd Peter 3: “8 But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. 9 The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.”
I see my Lego Christianity piece as a confession…a mental work in progress… a piece of where I was… a realization I had to come to…I hadn’t fit my Lego pieces of belief into my brain the right way in order to let my heart sing His Praises… and WOW… how I have been snapping the pieces in now…building and building…
The praise song lyric: “I used to wonder… so many questions like… is it really possible?” and the worship leader sings back “IT IS POSSIBLE!” … Yup it became real to me…building and building….
I just turned on the radio, and a Lego artist is going to be exhibiting his art work (over a hundred pieces) at the local museum starting this weekend. He creates art from Lego blocks…
…these beautiful LEGO creations are made with glue – he uses glue from day one, building life-sized masterpieces… but sometimes he admitted that he has lost days of work when he made a mistake – and he had to get his chisel out and remove wrong LEGO pieces…. Yep that was me too, I had to unsnap some pieces of my Christianity and disbelief and find the right pieces to fit… It’s not a masterpiece – yet – but I’m at the peace with the progress I have made and there are still more Legos to build.
I will make you a deal, God, I’ll grab the Legos and You grab the Gold and we’ll ride together (in my Subaru and in my heart and in my brain) in this journey. I made a new lyric for the praise song, so in addition to: “I was born to worship my Lord, that is why I sing…. “…. I now add: “I was born to worship my Lord, that is why I think!!!”
