Where are you Lord? Come Lord Jesus come! Have you ever just come to a point where nothing or no one else really matters? A point where you are just so consumed by onething and that's the only thing that will satisfy you. Where you are wanting something so bad that you begin to literaly pant for it? That's where I'm at now in my desire for Christ. I love my wife and kids and I know that they love me. I have good job and good friends, a roof over my head, plenty of food to eat, but none of these things and people give me the joy and peace that God gives me through my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He is the only one that.... me. I can't even truly express the way His love touches me,surrounds me,engulfs me,searches me,uplifts me,completes me,gives me hope and causes me to want to love him and others in the same matter.
The problem is I fall short and don't love Him like I should. I don't seek Him like I should. I don't love others like I should and I am reminded of my wretchedness,the blackness of my heart. In light of His goodness and grace, His mercy and forgiveness, His unfailing love towards me which He lavishes upon me unconditionaly, who am I too be unloveing and unforgiving towards anyone. After a brief moment of contemplation I realize that I am not worthy of Him. And because He is so Holy, so righteous, so pure and I am... well me, at times He seems so far away. Yet His graces reaches me where I am and causes me to long for the one who reedemed my soul with His own blood and I cry out where are you Lord. Come Lord Jesus come.
