Lost and found

Lost and lonelyHe leads me by quiet waters
He restores my soul
I am put to wondering about our Creator.
How great He is to have made such wildness
Such beauty and contrast
And i think about life too
How we face beauty but also ugliness
Ugliness spawned by sin and evil
By an invasion into the world
By one who doesn't seek our good
But how we are protected and surrounded by a God
A Father, a Saviour
What an awesome knowledge
What amazing grace
That we are pulled out of our contrasting state of lostness
And are found with the Almighty
That he chose and redeemed us
That He set us apart to be His own
That we are called His Children!!!
That He loves us
He loves me.
Love
