Closer

When you're down, when you're lonely, where do you think you are?

Struggling and pretending to grab or replace that which had been seemingly taken from you,

or giving up EVEN life itself?

A communion with friends and loved ones is no more than a timed happiness, but a communion with them under the grace and mercy of God is a true blessing indeed. For who else is the TRUE expert on Eternity?

So stop running,

have no fear...God is here!

Where do you think you are now?

Oh Timothy, Timothy, you have come this far, it is not because you are any good but because of the grace of God. Should you have any slightest of pride, may God rebuke you with such great lightning and thunder that you'll go deaf and blind until you repent. For it is better to be struck and remain in the Lord than to be given all the satisfactions of this world and not even realizing that you've been disowned by God.

Dear Lord, do not leave me unless you've blessed me.
Amen.
