Who Was This Man
I met this man just the other day
He sat so lonely that I just couldn't turn away
We sat down and talked a bit
We talked on and on, like we just couldn't quit
Then came the moment when I wondered to myself
Who was this man telling me about myself
He read me form the outside in
Called out all of my sins
He knew how deeply sorry I felt about them down inside
And all the feelings I tend to hide
He told me to take a walk with him
I was a bit skeptical because I didn't know him
He grabbed my hand and said come on
Right then was when all my fears were gone
We walked and talked for a long time, all the while I stumbled and stumbled through my mind
But for some reason, his name, I could not find
Finally, he said that it was time for him to go
I didn't want him to, for his name, I did not know
So I asked him what was his name
It was only fair that I know because he knew my name
He said that he was no ordinary man
That I knew from when he touched my hand
I told him everything except his name was talked about amongst us
Then he said, "I am Jesus"

I love the verse but it also reminds me of When Jacob fell asleep at bethel I think it was and was wrestling with God and held out to the end and God said the day had come and he must leave and Jacob asked him what his name was. Yet Jesus had not come yet so He wouldn't not tell him his name. But now His name has come down from on high and risen above all others and to follow where His name Goes we must give up all. All that we where in our own sight and conform to the newness of Hope Which drips down from heaven as GOD's grace. What joy still rises in my heart to read his name... For it is only through HIS blood I am set free and only by This name I can receive HIS most precious grace in faith. And our joy comes in the morning when all shadows fall away...
Thank You once again please keep posting
