Back to my Maker
Where does the heart go that has given up hope ?
Where does the heart go that has been broken ?
Where does the heart go that feels numb to the things of this world? that has lost all feeling ? all conviction ?
The heart that feels like it has been forgotten... abandoned...abused...
Where does it go ?
....it goes back to it's Maker
the One who can give it a future
the One who can restore
the One who can revive it, give it a purpose and the willingness once again to live... to impact this fallen world.
The heart that feels like it's been forgotten hasn't really been forgotten at all.
You see it has never been more in the midst of God's watch.
The heart that feels like it has been abandoned never rested more securely in the very hands of God!
The heart that feels like it has been abused over and over again has a Comforter. His name- Jesus.
He waits patiently for that moment when that heart will return so that He can COMFORT it.
For that moment where He can tenderly hold it while whispering softly, "I know the plans I have for you... plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a future and a hope". (Jer. 29:11)
That is where the heart goes.
Today my heart will run to Him.
Wounded, battered, bruised but with great expectancy I will run to Him as He runs towards me.
With all the strength left in me, I will run.
With nowhere else to turn and nowhere else to go...
I will run....
straight...
back to...
my MAKER.
