Salvation Saturday: You Invite Me In

“But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, whom he poured out on us generously through Jesus Christ our Savior” Titus 3:4-6

I used this in a blog a while ago, but I was awakened by this song yesterday morning, and every time I hear it I am reminded of those in my life that I long to know the Lord.  I just had to use it again today.  I am touched every time by the words. 

Every Saturday for almost two years I have prayed for Alyssa and Kyle's salvation and walk with Christ.  I know that they've asked Him into their hearts, but I pray that they choose to follow Him all the days of their lives.

YOU INVITE ME IN

by Meredith Andrews

I've been searching,

Wandering and hurting

Ashamed of the shape I'm in

Afraid you'll see who I really am

CHORUS

You invite me in

Doesn't matter where I've been

Your arms are open wide

There's nothing left to hid

You invite me in

Doesn't matter where I've been

Your arms are open wide

Pulling me to Your side

How can this be

Love so unfailing

Reached down and lifted me

From ashes to beauty

CHORUS

I am walking away

From the life I once knew

And running to Your

Grace that covers my shame

Again and again

I find my life in you

Lord, you so loved my precious children, Alyssa and Kyle, that you gave your one and only Son for them, so that if they believe in You, they will not perish but have everlasting life. (Jn. 3:16) What a beautiful gift Lord...a gift that I pray they always believe in, and live out in their lives. If doubts arise in their minds and hearts, I pray Lord that you continue seeking them out, and do so in a way that they can sense you pursuing them and never leaving them. May their hearts remain steadfast in you, and they stand firm in their faith all the days of their lives.  Oh how I pray that they love you forever and ever!
