What a relief, to stop running

Leave all the dead ends behind

Quit looking for Light in darkness…

“Be still, and know that I am God”*

Some people say He waits

For us to finally find Him…

I know He chases after those

He’s set apart, sealed as His own–

Stronger than movie super-heroes

He doesn’t get tired, can run

Down miles as long as it takes 

To ambush (with love), wash us

Clean, cover our every mistake

He never breaks a sweat

Nor needs to catch His breath–

When I turned around to see just

Whose footsteps followed close

He scooped me up, held me

Hard against His heart…

No more running

I’m resting in Him

*Psalm 46:10
