Ever feel like someone is chasing you? I mean from the moment you wake up, till the moment you go to sleep, and every time frame in between. Every thought, circumstance, choice, event, every aspect of your daily life someone is following you and chasing you down. I am not saying this with a schizophrenic tone, that is not the thought, the thought is actually faith based and proven. Because I believe each and every one of us are chased, and interestingly enough by the author of the world. Think about that statement, and allow your brain to detonate and explode inside your head at the thought.
The ONE who places the stars in the sky " One by one" who breathed and the oceans were created in all their glory and massive power, the ONE who parted the Red Sea for humans to witness, told a guy to build an Ark in a drought, and turned water to wine, defeated armies of thousands with few, and died for us when he was found to be perfect, but WE didnt see it that way.
Yah that guy, he never sleeps, he embodies the modern day mantra LIVESTRONG,and he cares enough about us when we spend most of our lives at times not caring enough about ourselves or others to merit that love or chase.
So what does the ONE who chases us look like? Does he appear in conversations, circumstance, or coincidence. Is HE visible in the eyes of a child, or a Mothers time? Is he in awe of our daiy lives and persistent enough to chase us even when we arent worthy of being caught?
The fact is, I dont know the answer to the above questions, and the longer I live, I am thankful that I dont have to. Because I am thankful HE does, I am thankful for a plan not my own that leads to roads unseen on the Gantt chart of my mind and life. No, I dont know but HE does and I am glad HE is in control, cause his thoughts are higher than mine, his ways are perfect, and his timing is impeccable. He is the friend that always " shows up."
Not knowing I will still search in the daily goings on in my life for the one who is following me, cause I want that glimpse of perfection, I want to be found worthy of being chased. I will look to have converstations with a mind greater than mine, and a love I will never understand nor deserve. I will live the adventure and make stops where I need to, looking behind to see if indeed HE is visible, knowing he is back there somewhere...watching, waiting, and loving...in spite of who I am.
Thanks God, for seeing me as worthy of your time and energy, and pursuit.
