Recently as I was driving to Syracuse, NY I heard the following song made popular by Larnelle Harris, "I Miss My Time With You". I hadn't heard it for quite some time but the words had been on my mind a lot since reading Fil Anderson's book, "Running on Empty". It's hard to imagine that the Creator God, Abba Father, the King of Glory would desire my fellowship but that's why He created me! Can you get your mind around that truth? I find it almost impossible and yet I know, in the deepest recesses of my heart, that it is true.
I Miss My Time With You...
"There He was just waiting,
in our old familiar place
an empty spot beside Him,
where once I used to wait
to be filled with strength and wisdom
for the battles of the day
I would have passed Him by again
if I didn't hear Him say:
(chorus)
I miss my time with you
those moments together
I need to be with you each day
and it hurt's me when you say
you're too busy
busy trying to serve me
but how can you serve me
when your spirit's empty
there's a longing in my heart
wanting more than just a part of you
it's true
I miss my time with you.
What do I have to offer
how can I truly care
my efforts have no meaning
when Your presence isn't there
but You will provide the power
if I take time to pray
I'll stay right here beside Him
and You will never have to say.."
(chorus)
