What is it that we deserve...
How can we repay what is beyond our poverty..
Who would want us now..
What worth is there in a fallen creation..
What beauty in the ugliness of our sin..
the arrogance of our rebellion..
the bad choices we made in our selfishness..
And yet.. God has not given up on us..
He has not abandoned us..
He refuses to walk away..
He reaches out with miracles in mind..
with love and tender mercies..
with plans of healing and undeserved grace
to restore our joy..
Listen.
He is calling in the darkness..
Above the roar of the storm..
Despite our weakness and inability to hold on..
He is saying your name..
Speaking the truth..
Imparting hope and encouragement and strength..
Look.
The Wings of the morning are on the horizon..
The Light is dissipating the clouds..
Calming the winds..
Stilling the deep water..
And his hand is reaching out..
to you.
He will not relent.
He will not give up on you.
Speak his name.
Say it..
"I am here Lord...
And there is nothing I want more than you."
