The stranger walking beside you....

 * I was planning on writing this around Easter, but didn't get to it... Forgive my lateness. :)




Who is Jesus Christ
The question echoes down Emmaus Road
Dead or raised to life
The same doubts spoken first so long ago
When a stranger came
To two men on their journey
And it was not long before
Their broken hearts were burning

Somewhere between where you are and Emmaus
A stranger wants to come and walk with you
Somewhere along the way your heart will be burning
Drawn into the holy flame of truth
Right now He may be a stranger to you
What will he be when your journey's through
Somewhere between where you are and Emmaus
The Savior wants to walk with you

Some ask Him in to stay
As night falls on their own Emmaus Road
Some push Him away
And never see the mystery unfold
But those who take to heart the word that has been spoken
As He breaks the bread of life their eyes will open

Are we not like those two men of the road?

We read the Bible, but doubt it’s every word. We hear Christ’s voice, but do not recognize it, because are hearts are blinded to the truth, and strangers to faith.

This perfect Stranger is walking beside each one of us.

It is our choice whether we allow him to remain a stranger to us. Talk to Him. Hear the truth in His every word.

Invite Him into your life. Let your heart burn…. Burn for the truth!

 …….The Savior wants to walk with you.
