Search And Rescue
A glimpse of my journey
My life had no direction
I was being tossed
by the wave of the sea,
too many poor decisions
I needed the Savior
to come and rescue me.
My heart began searching
for all the truth
I desired within
I wanted to stop living my life
that was filled with so much sin.
On the inside I was lost
but on the outside
everything looked good,
I was good at going
through the motions,
nobody really understood.
The loneliness I felt daily
I suppressed by my activities,
the Lord heard my parents praying
for me on bended knees.
When I look back at the things
that I had done,
I'm sure there were Angeles
all around,
protecting me from
some circumstances
and guiding me
to solid ground.
If only I could see
what was going on
in the spiritual realm,
God's love for me
would be enough,
In my heart to overwhelm.
When I look back I'm thankful
for all the time I was pursued,
by my God and my Savior
many consequences they defused.
There came a time
I finally realized
there had to be more
than what I knew,
I was willing
to take a chance
and a new life
I'd pursue.
I just wanted to be happy
I was willing to leave
everything behind,
to start a new life in Him
Not knowing peace
is something I would find.
It definitely had been a process
to iron out all of my mistakes.
In my heart I kept reaching,
for God to heal all my heart aches.
Each day I spent with Him
I desired to know him more,
He started to infiltrate me
to my very core.
The desire to please Him
became more important to me,
I wanted to carry out his plans
for my destiny.
To Him we are worth pursuing
He sees our value and our worth,
that's why He had a rescue plan
and sent Jesus through a virgin birth.

I did not grow up in church. When I was 19 I asked Jesus to be my Lord and Savior and have been walking with Him ever since. It has been 30 some years.
