MEET & TURN

This is something that I wrote recently that speaks to our journey to Jesus:

MEET & TURN

When you meet Jesus,

You turn your face in shame,

Shame for all of the wrongs you've done,

Shame for all of the times you’ve let Him down,

Shame for being the hammer to His nails.

He calls to you with mercy.

When you meet Jesus,

You turn your back to Him,

You do not deserve His open arms,

You are not worthy enough,

Not lovable enough,

Not good enough.

He calls to you with love.

When you meet Jesus,

You turn away from Him,

You are afraid to follow Him,

You are afraid to be different,

You don’t feel you need Him,

You can do this on you own.

He calls to you to trust.

When you meet Jesus,

You see yourself in Him,

You see His love for you,

You accept the salvation He offers,

You surrender all of you to all of Him.

When you gaze into Jesus eyes,

all you see is love, mercy, and forgiveness.  

When you meet Jesus,

you are forever transformed.

You cannot encounter Jesus and remain the same.

When you meet Jesus, you have found your home.

Rest in His arms, Trust, and Live!
