You can run
and
you can try to hide,
but you can't
get away from
Him.
No matter what you are feeling
No matter what you are going through
you can't run
and hide from
Him,
even if you are trying to.
It is like running away from your heart,
because
wherever you go
your heart is there too.
Yet
we still run,
but
then weariness sets in
when you get to your destination
as it ends up being an imposter
that
can't deliver on what you believed it promised you.
But
as you are running
there has always been
Someone
waiting for you,
to meet you right where you are,
And
then
He
gets your attention.
You feel the gentle tap on your shoulder.
You want to look,
but you are afraid.
because
what if
He
turns away?
How can you
look at
Him
when you feel like you do
when you know He knows everything about you and I~
when I sit and when I rise;
He Knows~
perceives my thoughts from afar.
He Knows~
discerns my going out and my lying down;
He Knows~
is familiar with all my ways.
Even
Before a word is on my tongue
He Knows
it completely.
He Knows!
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
too lofty for me to attain.
Where can I go from your Spirit?
Where can I flee from your presence?
If I go up to the heavens,
You are there;
if I make my bed in the depths,
You are there.
If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
if I settle on the far side of the sea,
even there Your hand will guide me.
Your right hand will hold me fast..(Psalm 139)
He Knows!
You can run, but you can't hide~
ever.
No matter if you are on a ski slope
or on a tropical island
or in a hospital bed
or in an office
or watching TV
because
God
hems
you & I
in behind and before..
He Hems~
Surrounds
Envelopes
Encloses~
You & I
whether we believe it or not.
So
Wherever you are
Whatever you are going through
Whether you feel Him or not
Know
that
He Knows
and
that
He
is
everywhere you are
because
He
wants to be.
