I Had Nowhere to Go…  But God!

Lost and lonely, I was often bewildered.

There were life’s problems I shouldered.

I was empty inside and at my “wits end.”

There was no one around when I needed a friend.

I thought about “ending it all.”  I had nowhere to go.

Life was rather unpleasant, boring and DULL!

I was living for each moment and what pleased me.

The people nearby made fun of and teased me.

Then one night, I cried to God in my desperation.

I decided to call out to him and give an invitation!

I give an invitation for him to please help me.

Would he come?  No one could tell me!

As I prayed, a gentle peace entered my mind.

I knew this was God and this was my time!

A time to be forgiven of a life “messed up.”

A time for God’s love to completely fill me up!

As I felt his love and hope all around me…

This God I didn’t know, came and found me!

I’m so thankful for him and his loving care.

I don’t know what I’d do if he wasn’t there!

I invite you to accept this God that I received.

Won’t you put your faith in him, and believe?

This wonderful God changed me from within!

He’s me precious Lord, savior and friend!
