Array ( [sid] => 79592 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => What's Shining Through Your Holes? [time] => 2005-01-12 14:20:30 [hometext] => [bodytext] => So many holes,
Holes in your life.
Too many storms,
Storms of pain and strife.
It’s in these times,
That you learn to grow,
And through these holes,
You let the whole world know.
People are watching,
Just how you react.
They know you have problems,
But can you still laugh?
When times are hard,
In whom do you put your trust?
Do you give it to God,
Or do you chalk it up to luck?
Just what is it,
In you, that others see?
Have you given your life to God,
And does it show outwardly?
It’s your reaction in times of trial,
When true commitment cannot be hid,
It’s in these holes that others see,
Just what kind of life that you live.
Is it the Grace of God,
Shining through?
Or is it simply,
Your bad attitude?
If only you could see,
Just how it plays such a big part,
For others know,
It’s the very reflection of your heart.
So when you’re facing,
Great pain and woes,
Is it the love of God,
Shining through your holes?

What's Shining Through Your Holes?

So many holes,
Holes in your life.
Too many storms,
Storms of pain and strife.
It’s in these times,
That you learn to grow,
And through these holes,
You let the whole world know.
People are watching,
Just how you react.
They know you have problems,
But can you still laugh?
When times are hard,
In whom do you put your trust?
Do you give it to God,
Or do you chalk it up to luck?
Just what is it,
In you, that others see?
Have you given your life to God,
And does it show outwardly?
It’s your reaction in times of trial,
When true commitment cannot be hid,
It’s in these holes that others see,
Just what kind of life that you live.
Is it the Grace of God,
Shining through?
Or is it simply,
Your bad attitude?
If only you could see,
Just how it plays such a big part,
For others know,
It’s the very reflection of your heart.
So when you’re facing,
Great pain and woes,
Is it the love of God,
Shining through your holes?

That's beautiful!

'But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, so that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us' - 2 Corinthians 4:7
Even though our bodies are like earthern vessels, even though like you said, the storms of life cause pain and strife, Christ in us- is priceless treasure.
And even through the holes and the cracks, His love must shine through.

You have expressed it really well.
I loved the title.
Awesome write!
