Jesus' got a plan

P went with me to do some pics tonight. On the drive home, we heard Audio A's Kings and Queens on the radio. If you haven't heard it, stop right now and watch this: http://youtu.be/U64bongHqYU

We were singing along and got to the "if not us, who will be like Jesus, to the least of these" and I said something about wishing we had our foster kids already so we could be like Jesus to the least of these.

Princess P says, with 100% confidence in her Jesus, "Jesus' got a plan. He knows what kids we need."

OK, wow. She is so right. I made all these plans and timelines and whatever. Jesus' got a plan! I need to quit trying to work it to fit into MY plan and wait for HIS plan, which will obviously be a zillion times better than mine would ever be!

Here are all the lyrics. I so love this song!

Little hands, shoeless feet, lonely eyes looking back at me
Will we leave behind the innocent too brief
On their own, on the run when their lives have only begun
These could be our daughters and our sons
And just like a drum I can hear their hearts beating
I know my God won’t let them be defeated
Every child has a dream to belong and be loved

[Chorus:]
Boys become kings, girls will be queens
Wrapped in Your majesty
When we love, when we love the least of these
Then they will be brave and free
Shout your name in victory
When we love when we love the least of these
When we love the least of these

Break our hearts once again
Help us to remember when
We were only children hoping for a friend
Won’t you look around these are the lives that the world has forgotten
Waiting for doors of our hearts and our homes to open

[Chorus]

If not us who will be like Jesus
To the least of these
If not us tell me who will be like Jesus
Like Jesus to the least of these

Boys become kings, girls will be queens
Wrapped in your majesty
When we love, when we love the least of these
Then they will be brave and free shout your name in victory
We will love we will love the least of these
We will love the least of these
We will love the least of these
We will love the least of these
We will love the least of these
We will love the least of these
