He whispers to her
The story of an enraptured King
He depicts the tale of a passionate Savior
He whispers the story of rebellious royalty
He tells the tale of an ungrateful redemption
He illustrates the legend of a captivated Lover
He tells the tale of an adoring Father
He recounts the story of an adulterating heart
He murmurs the tale of a wayward child
Then He smiles as the tears of the pain,
Of the battle for her soul, begin to dry
And the memories of the past
Fade to the realities of the present
He grins as He reflects on her journey
And the place where their paths
Became an intersection
With a single choice of direction:
Forward.
Forward to His open and waiting arms,
Forward to a requited affection,
Forward to a thankful spirit,
Forward to a satisfied and secure soul,
Forward to a confident and committed heart,
Forward to a true forgiven sinner,
Forward to a true daughter of the King,
Forward to a true bride of Christ,
Forward to a true child of God,
Forward to Him.
