A Concert of Sacred Metaphors — Water and Stones

Music 1 Minute

As I mentioned on the previous blog in this series, the prelude flows straight into the first song. This one, by Michael Card, is called “The Baptism”, and talks about the Baptism of Jesus by John in the Jordan.

I love the sense of flowing water you get from the accompaniment.  Listen closely and feel it bubbling by.

The lyrics also talk about Christ as the Stone that makes men stumble, and the rock that makes them fall. Listen for how the metaphors are used.

Creational and relational type Renaissance man (writer, singer, thinker) holding to C.S Lewis's credo that if you follow truth originality takes care of itself, (anyway, originality is so yesterday, anyway.) That I have my wonderful wife Jasini is proof enough for me that life isn't fair. If it was fair I wouldn't have her, and instead she is my most faithful example that I am blessed beyond measure. My two adult children are the same unmerited blessing to me. We should all be thankful life is not fair but blessed.
