Could I just sit here awhile;
Know that there's nothing that I need to say
Safe in the knowledge that You know my ways
Love me completely, no need to hide a thing
~ Kim McMechan
Sometimes we all feel like there are things about us, in the depths of us, that we have to keep to ourselves, that we can't share with others for fear of rejection, or of hurting the other person, or simply fear that they can not possibly understand. If we have one or two people in our life that we rarely feel that way with we are truly blessed, but no matter how close we are to another person and how understanding and loving they are toward and with us there will from time to time be that fear of looking foolish or like a freak or somehow unworthy. Our hearts cry out for someone that can truly know everything about us, even better than we know ourselves, and yet still accept and love us, someone who truly understands and isn't hurt, confused or repulsed by the depths of our soul. The type of relationship where we never have to protect the other from us for any reason, where there are no needs for masks of any kind, where there's no need to hide a thing.
There is such a relationship open to each of us with our Heavenly Daddy. We desire to sit without hiding anything, completely naked and exposed with no fear, and we call out to Him, can I come to You? His answer is Yes. Yes, come. Always come. No matter how you're thinking or feeling. Regardless of where You've fallen short, come. The great love of God has no boundaries. There are no limits that He sets to protect His heart from us. There is nothing we have done or are that will make Him turn away. His call is always to come, to sit with Him and enjoy His presence and be renewed in His love.
