I love music. My mother played a mean piano, and then eventually a home organ. My dad had a collection of records that ranged from Dixieland Jazz to classic. Music was part of my life growing up. My tastes run a bit like my dad’s. I love almost all kinds of music with a few more “modern” exceptions. Not fond of Hip Hop or RAP or a few others that appeal to these latest generations.
A couple Sunday’s ago we had a guest speaker. That allowed Pastor Laura to do worship. She included the song, “Way Maker” written by Nigerian gospel singer Sinach.
I really love that song. The chorus lists characteristics of our God. “And You are Way Maker, miracle worker, Promise keeper, light in the darkness, My God, that is who You are.”
A friend from church gave me a lovely coffee mug inscribed with that chorus on one side and my name on the other. I use it every day for my afternoon iced coffee. And as I use it, I am reminded that …
I am reminded that my God makes a way where there is no way. I am reminded that He is a miracle working God. I am reminded that all the promises in Him are “Yes” and “Amen.” I am reminded that my God has taken me out of the darkness and brought me into His Kingdom of Light. That is my God – that is Who He is!
What do you need today? Do you need to find which way to go? Do you need a miracle? Do you need to be reminded of one of the promises we have in God and how we can appropriate it today? Is your way dark, do you need to be led to the light?
That is my God. That is your God. That is Who He is. Call on Him!
