GOD Knows…me!

It is interesting that whenever I have been stripped of any other identity except my identity in Christ, I can see and hear Him clearly.  He leads me so still waters…He knows I thirst!!!   I cannot fathom His great love after all this time I have tried to ignore His existence and refused to talk, yet He patiently waits for my return, and as soon as my heart cries out he opens His arms and embraces me!  So why do we ever leave?  Maybe because I have a selfish need for instant gratification that I think this material, physical world can fill, but NEVER does!   I may also at times just flat out refuse to give up something I think I need, want or deserve!!  And at other times things are going so well, I just put Him on the shelf and start handling things on my own.  Whatever the reason or season, I know one thing for sure….nothing compares to His great, great love.  It is ALL I really need!
