He Is My All In All
He is My All in All
When as a baby and a child of His
I still wanted to run and play and do my own thing,
but as time went by and I began to mature
I realized He was mine but, first of all, He is a King!
I soon realized when worldly kings come into a room
their subjects all kneel or bow,
then shouldn’t we as His subjects kneel before Him
as we humbly surrender all now!
All of our life, all of our will
He paid the price also for all of our sin,
then not surrendering all to Him is being
rebellious in these deceitful hearts within!
Just living a life in this world has with it
many lessons we need to learn,
and learning when something is taken away from us
we need to spend time just with Him until our hearts within us begin to burn.
If a father is taken from you
He will come to your heart and replace,
that loneliness, that aching and sense of loss
yes He will fill you with Himself, His Word and His grace.
If it is a child that is taken we can’t help but wonder why
but we need to remember that wee one is now with Him for good,
and again He will fill that gnawing pain of loss
as He promised in His He would.
No matter what the loss no matter what the pain
He has promised to be only a breath away,
to strengthen to heal, encourage and fill
but by His timing and His pick of the number of days.
No matter then, whatever the need
He is the Provider and our All in All,
and though at times He seems not to be there
we can be sure in our hearts He definitely will hear our call.
