For one I love who is hurting.....

When people let us down

When our heart is broken from loving somebody who can't love us back

 When we let ourselves down

When Life is not the dream we had planned

When our stubborn pride leads us to make decisions that we regret  

When we are running from a Father, who sent His Son to die so we can live

When we wonder if God is still there, does he really care, does he really love... me...you


Psalm 56
1 Be merciful unto me, O God: for man would swallow me up; he fighting daily oppresseth me.
Mine enemies would daily swallow me up: for they be many that fight against me, O thou most High.
What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.
In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me.
Every day they wrest my words: all their thoughts are against me for evil.
They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my steps, when they wait for my soul.
Shall they escape by iniquity? in thine anger cast down the people, O God.
Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: are they not in thy book?
When I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know; for God is for me.
10 In God will I praise his word: in the Lord will I praise his word.
11 In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto me.
12 Thy vows are upon me, O God: I will render praises unto thee.
13 For thou hast delivered my soul from death: wilt not thou deliver my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living?

I think David must have felt as all of us have felt at times, and yet he found the answer wasn't in running from God, it was in running TO God.....I pray one day you will find your way Home to His loving arms....after all this time He has spent waiting on you, letting you do things your way......He is still willing to "Run To You"
I've heard more than one preacher say the only thing holding the Return of Jesus, is the mercy of the Father for those wondering around lost, those wallowing in the filth and the stink of their sin, their misery, they say every prophesy has been fulfilled for Christ to return....."For thou hast delivered my soul from death: wilt not thou deliver my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living?" 

What an amazing, merciful, and loving God we serve...even more amazing is that one such as I can call him Father....
