I ran to Jesus

They said, “Go where you’re valued.”

So I ran to Jesus.

Because people will love you when you’re convenient and then conveniently disappear when you’re struggling.

We don't live in a perfect world, and I won't pretend to think otherwise.

This world is cruel and vicious...

But Jesus?

At my lowest of lows… He stayed.

At my highest of highs… He remained.

When I was broken… He stood firm beside me.

When I didn’t even recognize myself… He made me see the truth.

I ran to Jesus, because he loves me.

I didn’t have to earn His love.

I didn’t have to prove I was worthy.

I didn’t have to pretend I was okay.

He loved me in the mess.

He met me in the dark.

And He carried me when I couldn’t carry myself.

At my lowest of lows… He stayed.

At my highest of highs… He remained.

When I was broken… He stood firm beside me.

When I didn’t even recognize myself… He made me see the truth.

I ran to Jesus, because he loves me.

So yeah…

When they told me to go where I was valued?

I didn’t run to people, to humanity that often let me down.

I ran to the One who never left me.

Jesus Christ!!!!

At my lowest of lows… He stayed.

At my highest of highs… He remained.

When I was broken… He stood firm beside me.

When I didn’t even recognize myself… He made me see the truth.

I ran to Jesus, because he loves me.

I ran to Jesus Christ!
