The rock band, Cage the Elephant, have a song “Cigarette Daydreams” in which the chorus goes:
“You can drive all night
Looking for the answers in the pouring rain
You wanna find peace of mind
Looking for the answer
If we can find a reason, a reason to change
Looking for the answer
If you can find a reason, a reason to stay
Standing in the pouring rain.”
I see many people living this way. In this current storm of events in 2020 (that I don’t need to list) the question I continue to hear is basically, “What the heck is going on?” Granted, there are a lot of corporate challenges, and I speak daily to business leaders and friends who are struggling with overwhelming personal issues. I don’t know the answer to that question in most cases. However, as a young believer back in… we’ll just say a while ago, I had embedded in my brain the lyrics to two Andre Crouch songs. One said: “Jesus is the answer for the world today. Above Him there’s no other, Jesus is The Way.”
The other went like this: “Through it all… I’ve learned to trust in Jesus, I’ve learned to trust in God… I’ve learned to depend upon His Word.”
Today, choose the hope and power of Andre over the confusion of the Elephants. #BeTheEdge
