Sometimes, we hurt.  Sometimes, we are blind to what is coming.  Sometimes, we are afraid.  In these moments, I usually think “God, where are you now?”  I feel as though he isn’t there, and I start to search for him.  The truth is that no matter how hard I search for a King that will “make it all better,” I won’t find Him.  Jesus is already here beside us, and he has a plan for us.

When I picture the search for God, I picture myself on my hands and knees searching the ground for my lost God that I can pick back up like I would my keys, or my glasses when the entire time God is the one holding the light above our heads to that we can search.

Jesus is present and acts in our lives, but we may not find our King sitting on a thrown, or laying in the dirt, waiting for us to find him.  Where we will find Christ is by our side, holding our hand, shining light into our lives.

“Jesus In Disguise”
Brandon Heath

[Verse 1:]
Ever get something in your head?
It’s nothing you heard
Or something you readEver had a cut but you never saw a blade?
Brought to your knees
But you never prayed

[Chorus:]
Jesus in disguise
Jehovah passing by
The burden of a tear
Hanging in your eye

Jesus in disguise
A scar across the sky
You were looking for a king
You would never recognize

Jesus in disgu-ah-hah-aah-ah-haa-ise

[Verse 2:]
Ever feel like you been somewhere before?
You hold the key
You know which door

Speak the word your lips have never known
Because your heart
Told you so

[Chorus:]
Jesus in disguise
Jehovah passing by
The burden of a tear
Hanging in your eye

Jesus in disguise
A scar across the sky
You were looking for a king
You would never recognize

Jesus in disgu-ah-hah-aah-ah-haa-ise

[Bridge:]
So open my eyes wide as I can
Blind as I am
Blind as I am

So open my eyes wide as I can
Blind as I am
Blind as I am

Jesus in disgu-ah-hah-aah-ah-haa-ise
Jesus in disgu-ah-hah-aah-ah-haa-ise
Jesus in disgu-ah-hah-aah-ah-haa-ise
(So open my eyes wide as I can
Blind as I am
Blind as I am)
Jesus in disgu-ah-hah-aah-ah-haa-ise
(So open my eyes wide as I can
Blind as I am
Blind as I am)
