God says, “Yes” - Lectio Divina - April 25, 2010

For no matter how many promises God has made, they are "Yes" in Christ. And so through him the "Amen" is spoken by us to the glory of God.  2 Corinthians 1:20 (NIV)
Yes!
No matter my questions; the Lord answers YES.
No matter my doubts; the Lord answers YES.
When I am full of fear, is God still with me? The answer is YES.
No matter when the answers in this world and lifetime seems to be no; the Lord is saying YES.
All my no’s disappear because in Christ they are a YES.
Does God keep His promises? The answer is YES!
Is Christ the answer? YES!
My words are inadequate. All I can answer is AMEN!
In the bulb there is a flower; in the seed, an apple tree;
In cocoons, a hidden promise: butterflies will soon be free!
In the cold and snow of winter there’s a spring that waits to be,
Unrevealed until its season, something God alone can see.
There’s a song in every silence, seeking word and melody;
There’s a dawn in every darkness, bringing hope to you and me.
From the past will come the future; what it holds, a mystery,
Unrevealed until its season, something God alone can see.
In our end is our beginning; in our time, infinity;
In our doubt there is believing; in our life, eternity,
In our death, a resurrection; at the last, a victory,
Unrevealed until its season, something God alone can see.
