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
mould, He was the mould 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. Will you miss Him?
He came to model servanthood for all
mankind. Will you miss Him?
He came that we might have true
liberty. Will you miss Him?
He came to give you eternal life.
Will you miss 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
mould you have, then come to the Mould Maker and get a new one.
