Be The One Who Gets It

by BabyBeaver

Long title, I know. Sorry. Inspired by both a sermon and a song. Basically about the leper who got it, as my pastor put it. Let's see if the rest of us get it...

This one was written January 6th, 08, during our pastor's sermon about the ten lepers and making a difference, etc.

They can function together or separately, but for some reason I added them together.

Be the one
Go back and say thanks.

Be the one
Surrender all control.

Be the one.
Trust God's plans and live for Him.

Be the one
What do you have to lose?

I'm the one
Who can put God first.

I'm the one
Who can take the leap.

I'm the one
Who can give up everything.

I'm the one
Who will make a difference.

Together, they're 65 words. Apart, they're thirty-three and thirty-two words.

A friend of mine saw me writing them and kinda nodded like she thought they were okay, and I'm hoping at least one of you agress with her.

Be the tenth leper, the one who went back and said thanks.
"I just came back to say, oooooh, oooooh, thank yeh, Lord." (From a song our worship team sang after the 1-6-08 service. It's Jamaican, and I like it a lot. Another of the worship team members sang it on Thanksgiving night or something, too.)
