...Why?


...Why...

Why do You love me?

Why do You look on me with love?

Why do You continue to reach out to me?

Why do You still keep pushing through the darkness to show Your mercy?

Why did You hang upon that cross for me?

Why did You endure a life on this Earth, the one that You spoke into existance, for me?

I have one question to ask of You...

When you broke away from others and sat by Yourself along the sea shore...

Did You ever think of me as You watched the waves crash on the shore?

Your heart broke for people.

I can only hope mine would be a fraction of what Yours is.

You spoke no words of condemnation.

In You there is none.

May none leave my lips also.

You repay my misdeeds with love.

You repay my stubborness with grace.

You repay my selfishness with Self sacrifice.

Why do You love me so much?

Why oh Lord, why?
