He Comes to Rescue

Lonely.

Isolated. Alone. Without company.

Dark, gloom, quiet.

Silence!

Body trembles.

“It’s going to be a big one!”

“Grab hankies, tissues, anything that is absorbent!

The water works are coming down now!”

Raging waters erupt from her tear ducts.

In between sniffles and sobs,

She seeks relief to this biting lonesomeness.

Intangible sadness drowns her, deeper than any black hole.

Kicking and screaming, she sinks deeper and deeper into this engulfing fog.

It’s choking! Life sucking! And when it’s just about to steal her very last breath,

He comes to her rescue.

“Do not be afraid,” He says, “for I am with you,” He says

As He reaches out, and pulls her closer to Him.

"Be not dismayed for I, I am your God.

I will strengthen you,

Yes I will help you.

I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”

He embraces her tightly and reassuringly.

His love takes her captive in the best of ways.

The Lord is good,

For He is her stronghold in the day (and time) of trouble;

And He knows those who trust in Him,

And she…she trusts in Him.

Status. Happy. Very happy. In fact elated! Ecstatic!

Not alone…With someone, 

Not just anyone

With Him,

 The Lover of her soul. #Atpeace.
