trying to make His way home...

i was playing that song on the piano earlier and i was thinking about it and realized that it really is one of the most ironic songs i've ever heard. also one of the most blasphemous, but if you excuse that point and honestly listen to what the lyrics are saying, it's really makes you wonder:

what if God was one of us? just another person wandering the streets, no evidence of power spilling out of him, yet the Creator of the universe. and how would that feel to know it's Him, to interact with Him like you would any other person, and yet to know there's so much more to this man who can command the wind and the waves and who holds the very power of life and death and eternity in His hands? if God had a name, what would it be and would you call it to His face if you were standing face to face with Him? or would you be falling on your knees in fear at His glory? would you even be able to speak?

what would you ask Him if you had just one question to ask?

if God had a face, what would it look like? and what did the face of Jesus look like? the Bible says there was nothing in Him physically that attracted people to Him, yet something in Him must have drawn them to Him. and if you looked upon the face of Jesus would it cause you to believe...in God Himself? in Heaven and angels and all the prophets? would you be able to look into His eyes if you were aware that they knew everything you had ever done?

but the irony of the song is in this: that God was one of us. He became one of us. 100% man and yet 100% God. and people may hear that song and think of it as a joke, a tirade of mockery, but people may also hear that song and honestly wonder.

it makes me sad; people are asking the questions but they're blind to the answers that lie in front of their eyes.
