Glass House



We deceive the world with lies.  We hide behind the smiles.  We can see the home of desperate hearts and  the very illusion we've become has become itself a fear we can't outrun. We're broken...

Yet God alone can see right through this glass house we call home. He can take away the pain and break right through this glass house of our souls. It is through God the Father alone that we can be whole again. Though we fight to cover up the scars from our charade. There's a war between who we are, and who we make believe. But God can see right through this glass house we call home
You alone, You can take away the pain. 

Tim Tebow spoke at my church this morning and it reminded me of this song by RED. We need to break away the chains that hold us down and let us become exposed and vulnerable. Two reasons he gave for leaving everything on the line. 1) We beat ourselves up over our mistakes, but we forget that God already paid for them. And if we do that then 2) we forget that we are not good enough to get into Heaven, but He was good enough to die for us on the cross. 

Let us shatter these mirrors down and let our glass houses break away. Let us be new in God.
