Song Story:
    My wonderful husband let me have some days “to myself” just wandering along 300 miles of small ocean coastline roads, stopping many times to pray and read God's Bible.  And write songs.... oh, so many song giftings from God!  I'd set the clock early sunrise and go in the dark to the beach.  I was amazed... you don't notice this without a straight ocean horizon in front of you:  One moment the eastern sky is dark.  Then a few minutes later, the sky starts growing more reddish-yellow.  Then there's a tiny rim of glowing sun showing -- and in less than five minutes, the entire round sun is above the horizon.  And one morning on this trip, God showed me this parable:  
        The sun was in the same place all along.    
      It was the   EARTH    that rotated downward ... 
                  though  we call it  “ SUN - rise .”

      It is NO coincidence that God guided James to group the words “proud” and “devil” in two neighboring verses, James 4: 6 and 7.
Satan uses mis-direction to lead people to think 
that the first mentioned sin in the Bible is eating a fruit.  In actuality, that is only #3.  The first sin was Satan lying ---- misguiding Eve into thinking that GOD had lied.  The first mistake  was Eve talking with Satan instead of immediately running to God (James 4:8).  Sin #2 was when Eve decided that she knew more than God.   An intriguing contemplation for us in the 21st century.....

When we humble ourselves, 

bow before the Son of God, 

only then do we see the Light  Who is our  Life.

Dedicated to CREATOR God, 6 March 2012

LYRICS

1
We call it sunrise.   It's really earth sinking.
Sunrise won't happen 'til the Earth bows down.
Til the earth tips down it's world horizon,
the world stays dark,  the Sun WON'T bend Earth's way.
We can watch and wait and wait, but 
sunrise Light won't come this day, 
        unless the earth rotates down... we'll never see sunlight.

When the earth bows down, suddenly we see Light.
Yellow, warm, brilliant Sun that's always been there.....
whether or not we chose to believe
the light no one ever can see 'til Earth bows down to the sun.
The Light of this earth's green world.

2
We call it Confident,  but God calls it pride-full.
God will not appear 'til we bow  our will.
Till people bow down  their world horizons,
their minds stay dark.  Our God WON'T  bend human way.   
    We can watch and wait and wait, but 
    Truth's   Light won't come  our way, 
unless we humble ourselves....we'll never see God's Light.

When we bow our will,  humble ourselves to God,
God will reveal His light that's always been there.
whether or not we chose to believe
the light no one ever can see 'til we bow down to God's Sun,
The Light of this World:  Jesus.

3
I can have Confidence, but only in LORD God.
God scorns the proud but gives grace to the humble.
Until I bow down  my world horizons,
God scorns the proud but gives GRACE if I bow.
I can watch and wait and wait, but Truth's  Light won't come MY way,   unless I humble myself....  I'll never see God's Light.

When I bow my will,     humble myself to God,         
I'll see God's Logic --- and that's always been there,
whether or not I  chose to believe
the light no one ever can see  'til I  bow down to God's SON,
The Light of this World:   Jesus.


SPOKEN:    See     John     Chapter  ONE.
IN THE BEGINING was the Word,  and the   Word was WITH God, and the Word WAS God.  He  [Jesus]  was in the beginning with God.  All  things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.  In Him was Life, & the Life was the LIGHT of men. 
                And the Light shines in the  darkness....

God's SUPPORTING WORDS:  James 4:  4b-8a New KJV;   quoting Proverbs 3:34

“...Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friends of the world makes himself an enemy of God. Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain, 'The Spirit who dwells in us yearns jealously'?  BUT HE [God] gives more grace.  Therefore He says:  'God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.'   

Therefore SUBMIT to God.  Resist the devil and he will flee from you.  Draw near to God and He will draw near to you.”      ANOTHER TRANSLATION OF  PROVERBS 3: 34 --
“God  SCORNS the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”
