Need Encouragement?

Jesus is EVERYWHERE!
I'm an old guy and the Lord has been calling me for longer than many of you have been breathing. I was just thinking back to some music I used to listen to some forty-or-so years ago. When I was young I was drawn to this song and I didn't know why, until today. He's everywhere!

I cannot go anymore to the marshes
where the gatekeeper smiles at the poisons that he's made
for my heart belongs to the one on the mountain
where the doves build their nests in the sun-ripened glade

for I am the mercury - light of the morning
looking for shelter in this thunder and this rain
and you like some windmill weave light where its storming
your love like a potion for the hunger and the pain
Let it rain

I have been bought, I have been sold in the city
I've dined with the demons and I drank of their fear
but you, you have known and waited in silence
come cradle my heart in a homecoming tear

and we are the mercury - light of the morning
looking for shelter in this thunder and this rain
and he like some windmill weaves light where its storming
his love like a potion for the hunger and the pain

let it rain - let it rain
let it rain on the mountain
let it rain

2 Peter 1:19 We also have the prophetic message as something completely reliable, and you will do well to pay attention to it, as to a light shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.

Mercury is sometimes called the morning star and I think the author must have know this. And we have a joint-heirs.

Rom 8;16 The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children. 17 Now if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory.

We are the Mercury. We are somebodies Mercury today. Look for Him everywhere!
