They hid from the Lord God among the trees
Gen. 3:8
Where am I ??
Sometimes I feel lost … sometimes I feel so comfortable I am worried about myself.
Sometimes I feel like I am spinning circles
and then I find HIM in the middle of my mess and I am right where I belong.
Advent : The coming of Christ in my world …the open of the eyes to see His light enter.
Ann’s words from her book The Greatest Gift –
What more could we want than a God who chases us down with His love.
Ann asks and will join me in answering:
What would you say if God asked “Where are you?”
What does it mean to you that God would seek you and find you when you are far from Him?
What places deep within you do you long for God to seek out in the season of Advent?
A poem
For all these years I been walking with Him
I am still learning to keep my gaze on Him
Honing my eyes away from distractions that chain me
Trying to be more focused on submitting to His every prompting
Me chasing hard after the One who has already chased me
His love finds me when I am lost in some dark alley
When I am off track and lost
This God who seeks me out where ever I might be
and doesn’t give up until He has found me
Those places in me that drool for attraction
the places that cave and crave other things than the Lord
Find them God and draw them out
expose them and turn me round
Draw me to You alone
Let my hearts affections be wholly to You
and not after those things which will never quench my thirst
