White Noise

Today we’re caught up in so much noise We spend so much time on our gadgets or toys We worry about Facebook, Twitter, and all that’s online But when it comes to Jesus? Nah we don’t have the time There are so many things packed into our day But do we take that precious time to pray? Now I get it, we all have stuff to do But Jesus could have been doing other things when he was dying for you Now we have to spend our time wisely Cause when I look at my life, it always surprises me We have school, sports, homework or a job We think “Ya I can handle this…no prob” We say we can handle it, but this is just a fake façade What we should do is cast our anxiety on God 1 Peter 5:7 says he’ll do this cause for you he cares He constantly pours out his love that he shares He can make our lives so much less stressful So to his offer, why are we so resentful? We should want to cast our anxieties on him Sometimes, we just don’t know where to begin Even though God has so many things to do He’s always there waiting to spend time with you He’s there to help you, comfort you, or wipe away that tear He can fix any wound no matter how severe So let’s slow down and take our foot off the gas And let’s put our hope in Jesus for it will always last Some of you might think that God is outdated Check your glasses cause they’re probably jaded Unlike our gadgets, he will never go out of style Whether you know it or not, he’s been around for quite awhile He’s been here since the beginning, he knows what he’s doing So he should be the one that we are pursuing
