Running into You

I am an arrow, I am a rocket
I am a river and nothing can stop it
Cause You are the target and You are the atmosphere
You are the ocean that keeps pulling me, You're pulling me here

And I, can't get away, can't get away
Can't get away, can't get away
I can't get away, can't get away...I keep running into You

I am a beggar, You are the table
I am so helpless, God You are so able
And when I get turned around You change my direction
You're so perfect, I'm so broken, here You come with arms wide open
Chasing after me down every road
You're always waiting there

And I, can't get away, can't get away
Can't get away, can't get away
I can't get away, can't get away...I keep running into You

Even when I close my eyes, I can't help but see
There's no place that I can hide, You're such a part of me
I can't get away cause I keep running into You
I can't get away...

And I, can't get away, can't get away
Can't get away, can't get away
I can't get away, can't get away...I keep running into You

I think this song is so fitting for this week's sermon topic "God want's you back!" Often, we heard God's call, but we are afraid, or unwilling, and we try to run away from what he wants us to do. But this week, I've been reminded once again (both by the sermon and the song) that where ever we run to, God will still be with us, and the amazing thing is, He still wants us back!! He's willing to give us another chance, as long as we just return to him.

Yes, indeed God, I can't get away from You. Help me to stop running away from you, and start running towards you instead. Amen.
