15. Michael Card - Joy In The Journey

15. JOY IN THE JOURNEY
Scribbling in the Sand: The Best of Michael Card (2002)


There is a joy in the journey
There's a light we can love on the way
There is a wonder and wildness to life
And freedom for those who obey

And all those who seek it shall find it
A pardon for all who believe
Hope for the hopeless and sight for the blind

To all who've been born in the Spirit
And who share incarnation with Him
Who belong to eternity stranded in time
And weary of struggling with sin

Forget not the hope that's before you
And never stop counting the cost
Remember the hopelessness when you were lost

There is a joy in the journey
There's a light we can love on the way
There is a wonder and wildness to life
And freedom for those who obey

And freedom for those who obey...

"...who belong to eternity, stranded in time..."

That describes how I often feel.

"Freedom for those who obey"! They cry of every heart; to be free. Only in Christ is true, and lasting freedom found.

Thank you Michael for this beautiful and encouraging song!

"there is a wander & wildness to life, and FREEDOM for those who obey". I have proven this sooo very true in my life. Obedience is the key to freedom from our worldly sins. Obey no matter what the circumstance may be... obey when we are weak, when we are strong, all the time. Thank God for giving us a gifted singer & composer like Michael Card!

Catholics first mistake is pride, "We are the original church following the traditions and teachings of Jesus Christ, passed down to us by the apostles."

Paul and the apostles started many churches but none of them stated they should focus on works to keep their faith alive. (Second mistake)

They also never said to pray to Mary, (Third mistake) if you're keeping count, which I obviously am.

These are all man made rules not found anywhere in the Word of God. I could go on but space prohibits it

@pdiddles03 What is faith without works. Catholics are very focused on the works because they keep our faith alive. we don't crawl on our knees to attain salvation but because that person see's it as an opportunity to grow in faith

[oneofseven100]

@pdiddles03 Catholics never promote crawling on your knee's to attain eternal life. read the bible a little more and you will realize that faith without works is DEAD. we are not simply a work based religion but a faith supported by works religion.

@oneofseven100

because crawling on your knees down a stone path to attain forgiveness is in the bible. Catholics are a work based religion in which you achieve salvation through what you do. Real followers of Jesus are saved by their faith in Jesus and that's all.
