Day 28: Wanted


At times I wonder if I am

WANTED

when I feel abandoned

and left alone

to be with

me, myself & I.

But GOD always seem to bring me

to the same place

when I feel so UNWANTED

that I don't know where to turn

except to myself and wonder

what is wrong with me.

And then I hear the soft whisper

that draws me so close

that being alone

never felt so good

because

there HE IS.

The ONE who purposely knitted me together in my mother's womb

and knitted you together in your mother's womb

for we are all

WANTED BY GOD~

"I look up at your macro-skies, dark and enormous, YOUR handmade sky-jewelry, Moon and stars mounted in their settings. Then I look at my micro-self and wonder, Why do YOU bother with us? Why take a second look our way?" (Psalm 8:3-4)

And HE answers

BECAUSE. Just BECAUSE.

No more words needed

As tears flood my being

that GOD just WANTS me & you & everyone else.

So when I am placed in that lonely place

when I feel so UNWANTED,

it is where GOD is taking me

so that HE gets me all for HIMSELF

so HE can tell me how much

HE LOVES ME.

I embrace the

ALONE places & spaces

as it is where

GOD reminds me that it is time to

BE STILL & KNOW

that GOD IS GOD

and that

HE IS ALWAYS IN CONTOL

as

HE never stops weaving together

all the BROKEN pieces of my heart

into a BEAUTIFUL picture

that is beyond my understanding

because

"If GOD is for us, who can be against us?" (Romans 8:31).

So why would we ever question

whether we are

"WANTED" (listen to the song below)~
