He's Still Right There

This morning I began writing in my journal, with an intention to build an altar for the Lord, reminding myself of His faithfulness. Times and tribulations He has walked us through. I thought I would bullet point these things, but then this flew out and I felt led to share.

"That's the real story right?

How you're good when we're not.

You're fulfilling, and we're lacking.

You're faithful, when we're not.

You're forgiving, when we're impatient.

You're gentle, while we're rushing.

You see us through.

You never leave your children.

You don't just bring us to the train platform and say, "I got you this far! Good luck!"

You walk us on, you ride with us through.

You get off on each step with us.

You never leave.

Yet then, why my heart, do you live so abandoned?

He's still there. You may be looking, but friends, He's right here."
