The men walked slowly over the well-worn path. As they conversed about the events that had
recently taken place, still perplexed and heartbroken over their loss, another
man joined them and entered the conversation questioning about what they had
heard and seen. What had not been
revealed was that HE was the one they were mourning over….they were blinded
from recognizing that HE indeed was Jesus.
I find often I miss His presence. I don't miss it because He isn't there. I miss it because I neglect to recognize or ask for Him to reveal Himself. I must remember He will NEVER leave me
or forsake me (Joshua 1:5). He remains
there -I just am too blind to see it sometimes.
I am blind by my own priorities, my own distractions, my own way, and my
own plans that I can’t even see that He is right in front of me waiting to get
my attention. Oh how stubborn I can be
to the help and guidance I search for that is held out for me. I just need to ask for it and receive it!
I had written “Emmaus Road” in response to Luke 24:13-27
about 8 or so years ago and had the opportunity to record it in a
studio…although I hope to re-record some of the vocals I had a fantastic group
of guys make up the instrumentation. I
am blessed to have friends with such great talent!
So read, listen, and enjoy!
Emmaus Road
Becki J. Buescher
Such
a heavy load
My
back is aching
This
is my burden, and my heart is breaking
I’ll
keep it tucked away until I can’t go on
And
I’ve traveled far too long
Calloused
heart, pride traps my senses
So
I drift away to any place but here
Where
every notion I could find
Gives
no peace of mind
I
want to run away, I have no strength to stay
Through the dust of Emmaus
road
I see what I’ve been missing
Too blind to find
You’ve been there all along
Beside me you have walked,
before you now I fall
come rescue me
I
thirst for you in this dry and weary land
I
feel so distant and alone
I
miss that mountain top when I saw your face so clear
I
wanna be there, I wanna be there
