Try how you might,
runaway,
don’t you know
you are actually
running
towards Him?
He knew you would run
and so He planned
to use the path you chose
to draw you in,
in to His Presence.
When you come into
his courts
and into His Presence
you cannot help but be
changed.
His Presence
is like a wrecking ball…
When you run to Him
He wrecks you
in the exact places
needing to be broken…
Then He lovingly rebuilds
us the way
we were meant to be…
Restoring us to our intended design.
Loving us back to life.
Setting us
on the pathway
to walk beside Him
Made whole
by the majestic Creator
Set free from our cage
by the triumphant Savior
Guided in life
by the precious whispers of the Spirit
The wrecking ball
is controlled on purpose
in His plan for us.
Run run as fast as you want
His love will continue to call to your heart
and woo you home,
runaway.
