Something You Don't See Everyday

I took this picture coming home from rehearsal one day. I know it's not my place to be blogging about it. I'm just wondering how many of us have thought about leaving. You know, running away from the situation we're in. Running away from the pressure, stress, and pain that we can no longer handle.

I don't know who Robyn is. And I don't know Robyn's family or background. But I do know that Robyn is hurting. And I do know that someone is waiting for you, Robyn.

God is also waiting. For each of us to come home to Him. We keep running as far away as we can; but He knows where we are. What we're doing with our lives. And His heart breaks that He's not a part of it. He's putting up signs everywhere, begging us to come home. But many of us don't listen.

I've run away from God so many times, and it's a miracle that He still takes me back. I know what it's like to keep thinking, "I can't take it anymore." But running away never solved anything. It only shows how weak we are, and how much we need Jesus. And only through Him can we stand against the waves of hurt and struggle.

Can I get an AMEN?
