I was a nobody, but now I am a sister of
the Son of God. When I am weak, I can know that I have a Sure Foundation to
cling to. I was a lost sheep; You are my Good Shepherd. Although I am just
another face in a crowd of thousands, You are the Fairest of Ten Thousand.
I am in need of rescuing; You are my
Savior. I can’t communicate; You are the Mediator. I need someone to stand in
the gap; You are my Advocate. Although I had a beginning, I shall have no end,
for You are the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and
the End, the Eternal One.
I am rejected by the world because I
follow the build on the Stone the Builders Rejected. When I need wise advice,
You are my Wonderful Counselor. I sin, but You are the Friend of Sinners. I
constantly get sick, physically, emotionally, and spiritually; no matter, for
You are the Great Physician.
I am lowly, but I adore the Anointed One.
My heart was broken, but You are the Healer of Broken Hearts. I need a gentle,
listening friend, and You say, “I am the Lamb of God.” I feel disoriented most
of the time, but I run to the Prince of Peace. I had no hope, yet You are the
Blessed Hope.
I am deep in sin, but You are my
Atonement. I need a safe place to hide, and I have discovered the only Mighty
Fortress. I was unprotected, but now I have a Shelter. I was headed toward
destruction, not Heaven, but I have entered through the Narrow Gate.
I am ruthless, strict, full of evil, but
You are the Lord of Grace. When I am in despair, I remember the God of All
Comfort and run to His arms. I was dead until I loved the Word of Life. I was
unclean and horrid in this world before I glimpsed the Rose of Sharon.
I was low and forlorn, but then you
whispered, “I am the Lily of the Valley.” All was dark before I eyed the Bright
and Morning Star. Althought I am but dust, You are the Glorious Lord, so I
shall seek to glorify You. I have no one with me except Immanuel, “God with us.”
I am built upon the Chief Cornerstone! I
am created by the Creator! The Ancient of Days gives each of my days new
purpose. When I am faithless, You are still the Author and Finisher of my
Faith. I am human, so You became the Son of Man. My strength is sapped, but I
push on because I serve Almighty God.
He had proven time and again that when
there is no joy, no hope, no life, He is the Resurrection and the Life. Truly,
there is no other way to Heaven than the Way, the Truth, the Life, the
Everlasting Father, the Captain of the Lord’s Army.
Shall I not seek to serve, love, and
glorify the Holy One?
There is no one like my God!
