Thank you for the cross I go now to meet you

It is Good Friday and I spent the most of the day reflecting and then this evening on to church. Afterwards, I came home and then stepped out to the back yard to see the stars. I wanted the quiet and desired to reflect on your plan in my life.

I looked up and noticed the moons glistening light reflecting through the trees around me. It was then that I wondered, Lord how did you do it?


I sunk deeply into the soft chair cuddled in your care with my blanket to keep off the night air. My heart and soul opened to hear your answer.

”You love me” I heard whispered.

“Yes Lord” I answered.

We are so blessed. Lord, thank you that you chose to come to this place when you did!

I began to wonder of the atonement, it tugged at my heart. The interlude of your destiny meeting the darkness as you were in agony on the cross. That moment of everlasting Love when the earth shook when the physical world met the supernatural and you said “It is finished".

Lord, I wish I could take the vision in my heart and put it in a bottle and give it to those who doubt you or do not know you.

Lord, I write my heart in way that one day others may read, I allow myself to be vulnerable to show it is your Grace that covers me.

I am free.
Jesus took my sin. He can take yours.

I shiver to imagine the hideousness of our human nature you endured Lord.

My life without you Lord was darkness.

It was a place where I had no healer, no hand to hold or guide me.
There was nothing inside of me.

That is until you called me out of the death march placing your hand on my shoulder. I am not sure why me? Why not the girls and boys standing along side me?

I know, I will never know until we meet face to face till then I trust your will.
Do you know how much I love you Lord?
My Everlasting Love it is your care that covers me from head to toe.
I want to sing your praises to everyone I know.
I don’t care if they love me or shun me or turn away from me; such is life.
Yes, I will love you anyways!

May I serve you?
I will to pour out love to the stranger.

Admittedly my Lord, this road with you is filled with heartache.

It has been filled with trials, boulders in my road to endure.

Yet, your word gives me solace and strength to endure. The world haunts my way and it shuns my friends, it tries to kill those who love you. Even in our own camp some prowel from within and fall back on their old ways.
I pray we always hear the immutable voice that rises within and gives way to the broken, healed and saved.

May I hear one day well done good and faithful servant, well done.

Just give me more of you, take my wretchedness and I will sing of your love forever, forever, forever….. Love you,
Me
