He reaches for me,
I was in an awful relationship a short while ago, maybe not even a true relationship. We had nothing in common, never liked being around eachother, and argued like crazy: we just liked getting intimate, to be completely honest. I knew it was wrong for me, and I rebelled against God as hard as I could, because I didnt want him to fix me. But the entire time I was in this "relationship" I wanted someone from the church to reach out to me, and talk to me, or ask me: "Samantha, whats wrong? Why havn't you been coming to church lately?" or "Samantha, whats wrong?" But nobody ever did, like I wanted them to. Nobody payed complete attention to me. But last night, while watching Passion of the Christ, I realized God was the one reaching out to me. And asking me: "Samantha, what are you doing?" I remember there was one night we were about to go all the way (sorry, I dont prefer to use the actual word) and I felt God whispering in my ear "This is just another part of your heart your giving away ..." & I backed off, because I remember how bad it had hurt me the first time.
So now, I am out of that awful relationship. I'm running towards God, probably not as good as I could be right now, but Im running towards him.
But in my toughest time, He was there for me, and now I can finally say that with absolute belief.
_+The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped. My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to him in song. - Psalm 28:7 NIV.
