I'll Be Waiting

Some of us run so far from God and think that He will never find us. There are those that are lost in their sin and either can't break free or don't want to. People run from their problems and all that life brings them, but somehow the burdens always seem to catch up with them.

Why would you wanna turn your back and run away from everything you face when you know it will eventually catch up to you? The smart thing to do would be to stand up and face your problems, your fears, etc.

However, you cannot do it alone. If you try to overcome things on by yourself, it will end up a mess... but there is one that can help take all your problems, fears, doubts, etc.

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. He is waiting for you to come to Him. His Word says to cast all your burdens before Him because He cares for you. Give your troubled life, your broken heart, your unstable mind to Him. He can and will change your life if only you will let Him.

Even when you cannot see how things are going to end up, when you can't see because of the blackness of sin surrounding you, just reach up and take the hand of Jesus. He is ready with open arms to take you and your life in His hands... the hands that were pierced with nails when he died for you.

It's true that God knows all... He knows what decisions we will make and where we will be at any given time. He knows that we will be exactly in the position we're in one second from now or one year from now... but I wonder if He's up in heaven, thinking of the place we will be when we finally surrender to Him, sayin to Himself, 'I know that you'll be there, and I'll be waiting.'
