Running

by Rachel Vilencia on Sunday, July 18, 2010 at 8:35pm

exhausted and spent
you catch up with me
winded and emotionally drained
tired of running
you stop me long enough to hear your voice

"Be still"
"I forgive you"
"I have loved you before you were formed"
"I will be your Father"
"I will be the PERFECT man"

like a wellspring it exploded
the feeling of your love
and reminded me of who I am
daughter of the Most High
singer of blessing songs
teacher to all who would listen

"Yes Sir"
"Thank you"
"I know you have"
"again thank you"
"You are the only PERFECT man"

my running career is over
unless I am running to You
