Come Home Running

As I'm preparing for our services this weekend, this song came to mind, which also seems to coincide with this morning's devotional from Luke 15:11-24. I don't know about you, but sometimes we just need to remember to just let everything go and just run to Him. He is the One who can solve all our problems, love us more than anyone else can love us, and provide for us more than we'll ever need or want.
The biggest question mark in my life right now pertains to my future....future job/career, future spouse/family, future plans, etc... And sometimes I feel like I'm barely treading the waters of life. I need to be constantly reminded of how BIG and GREAT my God is and how He loves me so much and just wants my heart in obedience to Him. How cool is that huh?
I hope that as you reflect on the lyrics of this song, and think about the price that was paid on the cross, you will recognize just how great and loving our God truly is and run to Him.....

Come Home Running
Oh heart of mine, why must you stray?
From one so fair you run away
And one more time you have to pay
The heaviness of needless shame

Oh heart of mine, come back home
You've been too long out on your own
And He's been there all along
Watching for you down the road

So come home running
His arms are open wide
His name is Jesus
He understands
He is the answer
You are looking for
So come home running
Just as you are

Oh child of God so dearly loved
And ransomed by the Savior's blood
And called by name, daughter and son
Wrapped in the robe of righteousness
