You don't fool me with your persuading words.
You don't fool me with your compliments.
You don't fool me with your double life in secret.
You don't fool me.
I think you kind of know that though.
What I need is someone that is going to call me out on my crap.
(not stand there as I continue to make mistakes and lead a ridiculous life)
What I need is someone that is going to cherish the time they spend with me.
(not walk out on me like I am a piece of garbage)
What I need is someone who is going to encourage me for the better.
(not encourage me to do the worst)
What I need is someone who is going to believe in me.
(not laugh when I try my hardest)
What I need is someone who is going to cry with me when something scary or terrible happens.
(not have you be the reason I am crying)
What I need is someone to carry me above the storm
(not someone who is going to create a storm out of nothing)
You don't fool me and I don't need you.
I need my Lord. He is the perfect man for me right now.
I come broken and needy. Carrying burdens of addiction, troubledness, worry, fear, trust issues - too many bags for me to carry. My Father lifts them off my shoulders as I get on my knees and cry out in brokenness.
Sometimes all you need to do is turn off your phone, take a shower, draw yourself away from the things that consume you daily, and open up your Bible to realized how long your Heavenly Father has been carrying you above the storm that has been brewing for too long. As you have been straying away, maybe even by simply not making daily time for Him and doing things that are uplifting to Him.
I am on my knees, ready.
Here I am.
"Take me In"
Take me past the outer courts
Into the Holy Place
Past the brazen altar
Lord I want to see your face
Pass me by the crowds of people
And the Priests who sing your praise
I hunger and thirst for your righteousness
But it's only found in one place
Take me into the holy of holies
Take me in by the blood of the lamb
Take me into holy of holies
Take the coal, touch my lips, here I am
