Easier

It would be easier if You were just a thought in my head
Simply something that I once read
A belief needing my defense

And it would be easier if You were something I once knew
A hope just to hold on
But You're holding out Your hands

The beginning of this song reminds me of something I heard on retreat last week. Jesus is a person. He has feelings. He is waiting for us. It is easier to think of Him as just speaking to the prophets in the past or an authority figure far away. But that isn't the truth. He is a friend, asking to spend time with us, asking us to trust in Him.
