Blessing in Disguise

Sometimes if you’ll look through God’s eyes
You might just find a Blessing in Disguise
Yes if you’ll look with your heart and not your eyes
You just might realize a blessing in disguise.

There we were on the road to Emmaus
We were hurting and thinking our God had betrayed us
But a wonderful thing happened to us on that road
As a stranger joined us – He began to lighten our load
Our hearts burned within us as He began to speak
And He shared with us about the Christ in whom we’d come to believe
(of whom our hearts did seek)
But it wasn’t until we had supped with Him
And we had broken bread
That we realized He was our Lord – Risen from the dead!

So Jesus showed us a simple Truth
In which we’ve come to trust –
That when all is said, that when all is done
ALL OUR GOD TRULY DESIRES IS TO WALK AND TALK WITH US!

This is why He came and died and why He lives today –
To walk with us and to talk with us in loving harmony
So if you feel your heart burning deep inside
It just might be, The Lord you see, A BLESSING IN DISGUISE!

Luk:24:13-34

For some of us, Jesus will appear to us in a form we don’t recognize. If we’re a Baptist, he might come to us in the form of a Pentecostal. If we’re a Pentecostal, He might appear as a Baptist. Or as a Jew. If we don’t believe in Apostles or Prophets today, He might just appear as one of these. In any case, we must be willing to sup with each other in order to see the Christ in one another. We must be willing to walk and talk together or we won’t be able to “discern the Body”, a primary goal of communion.
