 They were
looking for a lion,
He came as a
Lamb,
and they missed
Him.
They were
looking for a warrior,
He came as a
Peacemaker,
and they missed
Him.
They were
looking for a king,
He came as a
Servant,
and they missed
Him.
They were
looking for liberation from Rome,
He submitted to
the Roman stake,
and they missed
Him.
They were
looking for a fit to their mold,
He was the mold
maker,
and they missed
Him.
What are you
looking for?
Lion?
Warrior?
King?
Liberator?
What are you
looking for?
They were
looking for their temporal needs to be met,
He came to meet
their eternal need,
and they missed
Him.
He came as a
Lamb to be sacrificed for your sin.
Will you miss
Him?
He came to make
peace between God and man.
Have you missed
Him?
He came to model
servanthood for all mankind.
Have you missed
Him?
He came that we
might have true liberty.
Have you missed
Him?
He came to give
you eternal life.
Have you missed
Him?
When we submit
to the Lamb,
we will meet the
Lion.
Join with the
Peacemaker,
and we will meet
the Warrior.
Work with the
Servant,
and we will meet
the King.
Walk with the
Submitted,
and we will meet
the Liberator.
Concern
ourselves with the eternal,
and we will have
the temporal.
If Jesus is not
fitting into the mold you have,
then come to the
mold maker and get a new one.
Submit to His
plan for your life
and you will see
the eternal need met first; then all the other things you have need of
will be taken care of as well.
