None Like You

There is none like You
No one else can touch my heart like You do
I could search for all eternity long and find
There is none like You

None like You, not a one like You

Your mercy flows like a river wide
And healing comes inYour name
Helpless children are safe in Your arms
There is none like You

*****

Through events over the past week, I have come more fully to know the truth of this small chorus. No matter how deeply and painfully we wish that someone would provide the strength, safety, and comfort of the Father's arms in a tangible way, there is none like Him. To find a home in His presence, to want to be nowhere else, is all that I can pray for. And to know that He will be there, waiting with my name on His lips, is the most comforting answer I can search out.

"And Asa cried to the Lord his God, “O Lord, there is none like you to help, between the mighty and the weak. Help us, O Lord our God, for we rely on you, and in your name we have come against this multitude. O Lord, you are our God; let not man prevail against you.”" (2 Chronicles 14:11)

I'm sorry it's been a rough week. I'm always available to listen. And consider yourself hugged. :)

Accept, O Lord, my thanks and praise for all that you have done for me. I thank you for the splendor of the whole creation, for the beauty of this world, for the wonder of life, and for the mystery of love. Above all, I thank you for your Son Jesus Christ; for the truth of His Word and the example of his life; for his steadfast obedience, by which he overcame death; and for his rising to life again, in which we are raised to the life of your kingdom. Amen.
