God With Me

 But when God, who had set me apart even from my mother’s womb and called me through His grace, was pleased to reveal His Son in me so that I might preach Him among the Gentiles, I did not immediately consult with flesh and blood, nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me; but I went away to Arabia, and returned once more to Damascus. ~ Galatians 1:15-17 (NASB)

Returning home we find a place where we can be quiet for an hour, carefully reviewing what we have done. We thank God from the bottom of our heart that we know Him better. (Alcoholics Anonymous, p. 75)

God with me,
one-on-one
coming back home
where I’ve never been before.
God with me,
one-on-one.
Who would have thought
he’d single me out,
talk to me,
be with me
one-on-one.
What peace, what love,
what serenity, joy, glory.
What am I, who am I
that God could love me
one-on-one?

God, I thank you
from the bottom of my heart,
the depths of my soul,
the fulness of my being.
