| Flyleaf – Dear My Closest Friend Lyrics | 2 years ago |
| "Dear my closest friend I remember when you asked me to stay and I just walked away..." This is what all of us do when we deny God or don't listen to Him. Or even when we simply do what we want to even though He is telling us what we are doing is wrong and it will only hurt us in the end. But we refuse to listen anyway and do not let Him guide us down the right path. "I lost that moment..." We loose time we should have spent with God in our lives guiding us and becoming more like what we are supposed to be with Him in our lives. "I'll wait for Your answer but I already know, Your hand was always mine." I think this means that she is waiting for an answer to the letter but already knows what the answer will be. That God's hand was always hers. In this simplest terms this means that God is always with us. If we have accepted Him into our hearts then even when we take the wrong paths He is still always there with us. He is our comfort and strength no matter what we face even if we refuse to listen to what He is telling us He is still there with us. Being a follower of Christ myself I have felt this way. I have strayed and wanted to ignore God and do my own things. But in the end I just end up missing Him in my life and hurt myself and Him in the process of trying to do it my way instead of His way. I am learning that His way is the only way I don't end up hurting myself or anyone else. We are creatures of free will and our souls/spirits live in bodies that want to sin and want to selfishly serve ourselves but we are beings that were made to live with God inside of us. Without Him we are incomplete and fools just trying fill the space meant for Him with things that fade and will never measure up. We can't see God physically but we are not these physical bodies. We are eternal spirits longing for our real home. God. Jesus made it possible for us to reach God and for the present while we are in these bodies when we accept Jesus into our hearts He becomes a part of us and so His hand is always ours. He is always with us. | |
