words

these are words that how I feel sometimes. the first time I heard I felt like it was written for me. It just show the love for Jesus that he has for me and you and the rest of the world

Stained Glass Masquerade by Casting Crowns

Is there anyone that fails
Is there anyone that falls
Am I the only one in church today feelin’ so small

Cause when I take a look around
Everybody seems so strong
I know they’ll soon discover
That I don’t belong

So I tuck it all away, like everything’s okay
If I make them all believe it, maybe I’ll believe it too
So with a painted grin, I play the heart again
So everyone will see me the way that I see them

Are we happy plastic people
Under shiny plastic steeples
With walls around our weakness
And smiles to hide our pain
But if the invitation’s open
To every heart that has been broken
Maybe then we close the curtain
On our stained glass masquerade

Is there anyone who’s been there
Are there any hands to raise
Am I the only one who’s traded
In the altar for a stage

The performance is convincing
And we know every line by heart
Only when no one is watching
Can we really fall apart

But would it set me free
If I dared to let you see
The truth behind the person
That you imagine me to be

Would your arms be open
Or would you walk away
Would the love of Jesus
Be enough to make you stay

Hey buddy, I believe major conviction rides in those words. How many times have we tried to act as though nothing is wrong, when everything is falling down around us. The worst part is that, even though we are acting, everyone who knows us can see past the plastic faces we are showing. That's why it's so important to have some people who know you deeper than "foyer" fellowship as pastor puts it.
