CS LEWIS SONG

The only time I take a bath is when I'm sick or really exhausted. In the last 4 days I've bathed exactly four times... more than I have in the last 6 months. (Dont freak out: I shower!) As I had my forth thort provoking bath tonight, Brooke Frasers 'CS Lewis' song' drifted into my ears through my iPhone.





So there I was, in the dark, just me and the music, listening, really listening, to the words - and being touched by an incredible message: "Am I lost, or just less found..."





I'm not lost. I'm not 'less found'. I know my identity. I know my place. I know Hope - I know He's found me, I've found Him. But what about the guy I speak to so often who I know is lost... who doesn't have hope? Am I calling out enough for him to come out of hiding to be found? Am I praying hard enough? Sharing Him loud enough? Am I being Him enough? '





Brooke has challenged me tonight - and I pass on the challenge. The challenge either to call out to the ones you know are lost, or the challenge to you who is lost, to be found. Hope is coming for you... He's coming.

Here are the lyrics - be blessed.



If I find in myself desires nothing in this world can satisfy,

I can only conclude that I was not made for here

If the felsh that I fight is at best only light and momentary,

then ofcourse I'll feel nude when to where I'm destined I'm compared



[CHORUS]

Speak to me in the light of the dawn

Mercy comes with the morning

I will sigh and with all creation groan as

I wait for hope to come for me



Am I lost or just less found?

On the straight or on the roundabout of the wrong way?

is this a soul that stirs in me, is it breaking free,

wanting to come alive?

Cos my comfort would prefer for me to be numb

An avoid the impending birth of who I was born to become



For we, we are not long here

Our time is but a breath, so we better breathe it

And I, I was made to live, I was made to love, I was made to know you

Hope is coming for meHope, He's coming
