So I was just having my prayer time with my Jesus... He's awesome, by the way... My prayer time was unusually amazing, but that's beside the point of this blog...
I randomly had a song I've probably only 2 or 3 times, and definitely not just sat down and listened to, pop into my head: Where'd you go, by fort minor... DISCLAIMER: for any of you thinking of youtubing this video right now, I'm not sure I would recommend it. It does have some vulgarity in it... Unfortunately... However, this version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TPtbnf0uOjc has the audio censored... Not the video, but if you're bad a lip-reading this music video, or just don't watch it, than that might work for you.
Anyways, just the chorus of this song got into my head, which goes like so:
"Where'd you go?
I miss you so
Seems like it's been forever
That you've been gone
Please come back home"
At first I was really confused why this song would pop into my head, and dismissed it as one of those random songs that just seem to get into my head sometimes...
But then I started to understand why God probably shoved this into my head.... Annnnd consequently started crying...
This is EXACTLY how God probably feels about a lot of people right now. How many times have people broken God's heart in this way? How many people does God want to sing this to daily?
"Where'd you go?
I miss you so
Seems like it's been forever
That you've been gone
Please come back home"
There's gotta be so many people that God is just crying and dying for.... Wondering where they went.... Where is the light that you held so high? Where is the passion that burned brighter each day? Where did you go? I miss you so much... I'll give it all again, if you'd only turn around and find my arms of love... I'd die again, to have you turn around and embrace the One who created you...
Where'd you go?
I miss you so
Seems like it's been forever
That you've been gone
PLEASE COME BACK HOME...
God's intense passion for those that were once walking so closely and now have just backsliden is insane.... His heart aches for those who were once so bright, and now have faded until they only seem noticeable on Sunday mornings...
"And I remember when you used to say... 'Jesus is the way'... I never thought I'd see your light begin to fade..." - DC Talk, My Friend (So Long)
How many times have we broken God's heart as we turn away from His plea...
"Where'd you go?
I miss you so
Seems like it's been forever
That you've been gone
Please.... Come back home... Come run into my open arms... I won't force you, I won't grab you and make you love me.... I am a gentleman of complete patience, but my heart breaks more and more every day, as I see the one I love, the one that walked so close to me, drift further and further... Please... Come back to me, and know my love.... It's worth the world..."
God... Let my life never break your heart, though I'm sure it already has in more ways I'll ever know... I pray You'd keep me close, keep me safe... I'll rest in You... Keep me reliant on You...
God
You're the One
