Pause for Prayer: FRIDAY 2/5

 

I'm always on your mind, Lord,  

though so often, I forget you...

You never turn away from me
though I ignore and snub you...

You offer me your arms' embrace
though I resist your reach...

You're at the end of every road
on which I run away from you...

You make your home within me
though I've locked and shut my door...

You listen to my every word
though silent I may be...

You come to mend my brokenness
when I would nurse my wounds...

You empty out your self for me
 when I'm filled with self-pity...

You never fail to pardon me
each time I fail your word...

You never give up loving me
though I give up on love...

Your mercy's deeper than my sins
when deep in sin I'm lost...

Your grace is always there for me
each time from grace I fall...

Without you I have nothing, Lord,
and all I have is yours...

Amen.
