I
call to you, Lord, come quickly to me; hear me when I call to You.
-Psalm 141:1
-Psalm 141:1
I’ve missed you.
Missed
the way your smile lit the morning, missed the way I’d send the wind to swirl
through your hair. I’ve missed your marveling eyes and your sweet honeysuckle
laugh.
I’ve
missed the way you’d lean on Me, resting your head upon My shoulder and
trusting that I had you protected. Missed our walks up hills and through fields
fresh with flowers, when you’d lift your face to the sky and tell Me you’d
never leave Me.
I’ve
missed hearing about your dreams and the simple pleasures that made your day.
I’ve missed watching sunsets and catching fireflies in the early evening
twilight, and holding you in the vanilla hours of night, where your heart shook
and tears warmed your face.
I’ve
missed you calling out My name.
My
heart just hasn’t been the same since you slipped away from Me. You seemed to
forget that together, we could do great things. We could do the impossible. You
wanted to try it on your own, and now you’re down and drained in spirit. My
love, can you come back to Me? You need me as much as I desire you, and I feel
your heart searching for Mine.
Beloved,
I am here. Waiting. Come quickly to Me. I am watching for the light to lift you
up again, because I know, without a shadow of a doubt, the degree to which you can
glow.
Prayer:
Father, I have run around and around and
tried to live my life as I think I should. I have forgotten that You want my
attention, but most importantly, You want my heart. Bring me back to You, for I
have missed Your presence and comfort, and I am humbled that You miss my
affection as well. Amen.
