“All this pain. I wonder if I’ll ever find my way. I wonder if my life could
really change at all. All this earth. Could all that is lost ever be found?
Could a garden come up from this ground, at all?
You make beautiful things. You make beautiful things out of the dust.
You make beautiful things. You make beautiful things out of us.
All around hope is springing up from this old ground.
Out of chaos life is being found in You.
You make beautiful things. You make beautiful things out of the dust.
You make beautiful things. You make beautiful things out of us.
You make me new. You are making me new.
You make me new. You are making me new.” BEAUTIFUL THINGS – GUNGOR
I’ve played this song many times in youth group and honestly I’ve never
paid as much attention to the words as I did a few days ago. I’ve always
understood this song on the surface, but Yeshua revealed something really
awesome to me with this song. I believe this song speaks of our generation.
Our generation is filled with pain. We are LOST. Never before have there been so many
hurting hearts and broken families. Sadly, teenagers are seldom looked on
as individuals but as statistics. Many adults have such low expectations
of us. I know how depressing and painful this can feel. Teenagers want to
be challenged and if all we have to live for is to be a disappointment,
then that is exactly what we as a whole will end up being. This world may
not believe in you and not expect much out of you, but Yeshua does. He
knows that each and every one of us has an amazing potential. This song
really describes the poor state our world is in, but it also shows the
glimmers of hope. What is that hope? It is Yeshua making a difference
through US! Yeshua can spring up plants in this desert.
All we have to do is ask in faith.
Will you let Him make you beautiful?
BEHOLD! He makes ALL THINGS NEW!
