Lord, what you say is true. Who you are is real. What you plan will unfold.
If you need proof, consider that
when we had the opportunity to walk away and only later realized how we’d shot
ourselves in the foot, His plan wasn’t to abandon us, but to offer us the
invitation that He would live inside us, closer than ever. In our brokenness, He knew that we needed
His presence that close, His influence to be that continual, His love that
permeating. We needed to be infused with His life.
And He hung that invitation on the cross and delivered it and us through
the empty tomb.
“In the secret, in the quiet
place, in the stillness You are there.
In the secret, in the quiet hour I wait, only for You, ‘cause I want to
know You more. I want to know
You. I want to hear Your
voice. I want to know You
more. I want to touch You, I want
to see Your face. I want to know
you more.”
Lyrics by Chris Tomlin,
“In the Secret”.
