Learning Each Day - II

I once told someone I forgive but I don't forget. Understably shocked, this person said okay, that's scary. And it was. I very obviously had a very loose grasp on the concept of forgiveness at the time, and very long afterwards. These past three days things have been happening that I firmly believe are far from coincidence. Sunday morning before reading or even opening my devotional, while leafing through my bible I somehow stopped and read the book of Jonah. Yes, I and the whole world know the story and how he got trapped in the big fish, still I stopped to read it. Then a few minutes later when I started reading the devotional, one of the day's bible readings happened to be from Jonah. Hmm, coincidence? Maybe. Well, that very night while watching TV and flipping through the channels I momentarily stopped to listen to a televangelist speak. And guess what he started talking about some minutes after I had tuned in?

Sometimes I Cry - Jason Crabb

An Intro to this, here. Ignore if you got referred here from The Part-time Christian.

Sometimes I Cry

I look the part 

Blend in with the rest of the church crowd 

I know the routine 

I could list all the bible studies in town 

Watch christian TV I know all the preachers...their clichés 

Been born again, without a doubt I know I'm saved

But sometimes I hurt and sometimes I cry 

Sometimes I can't get it right 

No matter how hard I seem to try 

Sometimes I fall down 

Stumble over my own disguise 

I try to look strong 

As the whole world looks on 

But sometimes alone I cry 

I try to speak faith 

Never give the devil one inch to get in 

I do worship and praise 

Let everybody know just where that 

I stand On the back of my ride is a fish and a cross 

For the world to see 

I know God is good, all of the time 

Yes there's no doubt for me
