You give me words to speak of the things You've been doing to my heart.  The way Your love has moved me to tears recently.  The way You speak straight to my heart before a word is on my tongue-before I even made it out from the bathroom in the morning.  The way You speak to me shortly after You wake me up- ready to know love.  You keep reminding me that old or new things or people won't satisfy me because I was made to know You and You only.  I've been running; I've been afraid.  I've been scared that I've been afraid.  When I cried, You said you have never left me and never will-that made me cry even more.  When I told You I can't go through this any more, not every day. You didn't tell me You'd take the pain away but instead reminded me that You are right next to me and in me when I walk through the necessary.
Was this the depth of friendship, of love, You've always talked about?  Could I be so blessed to find myself walking with You?
You sent friends from afar to let me know You'd go a long way for me. Just to be with me.  You challenge me. You take me to great heights to show me You are in control.  You walk with me down to the hills to show me what You've freed me from.  Apart from You I am no good.
You wait for me.  Waiting is being ready.  Like a runner waiting for the gunshot.

Here I am.

Please guard my heart and take hold of it.  It's been hard lately but I know You are good.
