\"\"<\/b><\/h6>\n
In the quietness of the room<\/h6>\n
Where no one else sees<\/h6>\n
You feel totally alone, unwanted, wallowing in disbelief.<\/h6>\n
There He, is, waiting and watching.<\/h6>\n
In the busy workplace where no else sees<\/h6>\n
You\u2019re consumed by chaos, as disaster looms<\/h6>\n
You feel totally alone, overwhelmed and frantic.<\/h6>\n
There He, is, waiting and watching.<\/h6>\n
On the congested highway cars speeding by, horns blowing<\/h6>\n
You curse and sigh\u2026<\/h6>\n
Tormented soul you ask yourself why?<\/h6>\n
Is this the life I chose? Crying each night, heart stone-cold\u2026<\/em><\/h6>\n
There He, is, waiting and watching.<\/h6>\n
Remembering a time long, long, ago<\/h6>\n
A verse memorized goes through your head\u2026<\/h6>\n
Sunday school flashes before your eyes<\/h6>\n
Something happens as you repeat what it said,<\/h6>\n
For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:16<\/strong><\/em> KJV<\/em><\/strong><\/h6>\n
Hope is realized as you wipe your eyes\u2026you do something you haven\u2019t done in some time\u2026<\/h6>\n
You get down beside your bed, bow your head, and pray\u2026<\/h6>\n
There He, is, waiting and watching.<\/h6>\n
Lord, forgive me I need you. Take my life and make it what you want it to be. God I can\u2019t do this by myself anymore. I\u2019ve let loneliness, and chaos be my god\u2026and it\u2019s not worked out so well. I am asking you to be my LORD and SAVIOR! Thank you, Jesus, for loving me and for dying for me and for giving me eternal life. Amen!<\/em>\u00a0<\/em><\/h6>\n
Suddenly, you feel as light as a feather. Peace enters your heart and, in your spirit, you hear\u2026<\/h6>\n
Child, I\u2019ve been waiting and watching you all of your life. I will never leave you nor forsake you. I just needed you to invite me in. I will always be waiting and watching, all you had to do was ask!<\/em>\u00a0<\/em><\/h6>\n
Do you see yourself in this person? Are you struggling in life? Are you full of doubt and fear? Does your life appear hopeless and without purpose? Are you only going through the motions?<\/h6>\n
Jesus said in this world there will be problems, there will be persecutions, there will be trouble\u2026but be of good cheer for He has overcome the world.<\/h6>\n
It may seem insignificant and simplistic but Jesus made it so that even a little child could understand. Instead of crying yourself to sleep at night, instead of wanting to bash everyone in your path, find a quiet place and talk to the only one who can change it all. Talk to Jesus. He is there, waiting and watching. Simply ask!<\/h6>\n
There is a way that seems right to a man but the ends thereof are the ways of death\u2026<\/em>\u00a0<\/em><\/h6>\n
When you accept the gift of Jesus Christ, you gain eternal life here and now!<\/em>\u00a0<\/em><\/h6>\n
