Remember Me?


Remember me?

I remember you

I knew you before the world was

I was your best friend

How could you just leave?

I paid the price for you

I set you free..

Now do you remember me?

I set the world into motion

and I let you have your dominion

but you made things vile and not what I had intended

I forgave..

You and I have a love story together

One like has never been written

I hold out my hand to you

and yet you refuse help

you are like the dog returning to the vomit

there will come a time when your pride ceases

there will come a time when I spit you out of my mouth

because you were neither hot nor cold

I will turn you away and shun you because I never knew you

do you remember me?

Get to know me!

You stubborn people!

you refuse to allow me to work and to love you

how long must I wait for you

to recognize the face of your Savior

I am your Father, Lover, Healer

come to me

allow me to guide your paths with my gentle loving hand

allow me to engulf you in my arms

I don’t promise things will be easy

in fact I tell you now they won’t be

you will be persecuted and shunned just as I was

but my great and mighty name will not be ignored

and my will WILL be done

I am merciful

come back to me dearly loved

stop running, you cannot hide from me

I am not angry

just grab my hand and hold on tight

don’t waste your life with games

live it for me

because that is what I have created you for

you see my glory all around

yet you do not give credit where credit is due

you hold back your praises from me

so I will hold back my blessings

I am jealous for my people

I want you.

Do you remember me?

Please remember me..

Wish I could take the credit for this one... Credits to Mary Lee Kirkham. Love you girl! Your walk with Christ is admirable!
