If You Really Knew Me



If you really knew me, would you like me
If you could see inside my heart and soul
If you could see the arrogance, the anger, the darkness


So many feel the solitude
We see our world from our point of view
We see the things we do and feel

We do what we wish we wouldn't
We don't do what we know we should
We can't seem to get it right most of the time

We feel the loneliness when in a crowd
The complacency in tragedy
We forget how to feel

We focus so much on us
We forget to turn our eyes upward
We forget there is hope in Jesus

We spiral down to the bottom
Seeing only the sides of the barrel
Forgetting to look up to the light

We look so much at the darkness
It becomes our way of life
We give in to the struggle


If you really knew me, would you like me
Do I like me
Do I feel like a failure

Let me see my life

Let me see my world
As though I were looking through Your eyes Lord


If we would look at the world through His eyes
Realize that we are more than what we think
That we are a child of God

If we could let go of the defeat
Let go of the darkness and look into the light
Would we like what we see

Can we change and find our way
Maybe not, but God can
For He is the God of possibilities

Surrendering to His Love
It seems so hard
Until we just let go

Yes.

If I really knew you, I would like you.

The Father sought me and bought me and I was NOT worthy.

I have "chosen" to open my heart to those I wouldn't normally allow in.

Before I go to heaven, I want a chance to experience the FULLNESS of His joy and that means dying to self daily.

It is easier said than done, but I will give it my best efforts and I will not give up and surrender defeat.

The enemy wants us to judge, to persecute, to condemn, to ostracize and to isolate from one another...We were meant for fellowship.

How can we glorify HIM is we fail to see the wounds and the beauty in others? I want to know you and be known by you, my friend.

Love,
China
