Well, we made it to July!
June was quite a month, ending with a bang--a startling overturn of Roe Vs Wade! We note that sadly, the personhood of the unborn was not recognized by the court, but the affirmation that abortion is not a constitutional right was enough to throw many of those for whom abortion is a religious rite (not just a "right") into a wild and destructive frenzy.
Where does this leave us Christians? Praying for and loving these and other enemies. Standing up for the defenseless. And getting more serious and intentional about sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ because it is the only life rope for an insane world sinking into an eternal hell.
With this in mind, I have posted a newly recorded (and newly finished) song I have been working on. It's a little different genre from what I usually write, but it seemed the right decision for this song. I sincerely hope it can give you courage for what is today, and what will likely be more fierce tomorrow. We Christians are living on borrowed time.
VERSE 1
I am bought with a price
My life is just on loan
Jesus You paid it all
And I am not my own
In the crosshairs of the world, they hunt me, they fight me
Lord help me give my all
When demons take their aim
It's into Your arms I fall
CHORUS 1
I’m living on borrowed time, borrowed time
I’m out on the thin ice now
Way up on the tightrope line
I’m living on borrowed time
VERSE 2
You were the suffering One
You died courageously
You gave no place to fear
You loved Your enemies
Even as You warned of hell, the torment, forever
Let’s not shrink from the truth
Until You call us home
We fight on, bulletproof
CHORUS 1:
CHORUS :
I’m living on borrowed time, borrowed time
Our heartbeats count down now
There’s not a breath that’s mine
I’m living on borrowed time
CHORUS 1:
