But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
And therefore will the LORD wait, that he may be gracious unto you, and therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you: for the LORD is a God of judgment: blessed are all they that wait for him.

I Chose...
My focus was on Jesus, but at one point I looked down and lost my way.
I chose not to call out his name, and I chose not to fall to my knees to pray.
I chose to walk the path alone, I chose to dig a hole.
No one could comfort me, I hid my hurts within my soul.
I refused to look up again, he wanted to forgive me, but I was ashamed at what I'd done.
I turned my back on all I learned, God could see that all I wanted was to run.
I pulled away and fought His love, I didn't feel I was worthy to recieve.
Little did I know this was the plan that Satan had hid up his sleeve.
I was in the middle of a battle and Satan wanted control.
He was waiting for me the whole time, he was waiting in that hole.
Everything started to fall apart, the walls crumbled to the ground.
It was the choice I had made, to be lost, not wanting to be found.
I started to feel torn, my heart got tired, I needed mending inside and out.
I chose to call His name, but I didn't have to shout.
He was there with me the entire time, he never left my side.
I wasn't lost all along, from Him I could not hide.
He knew where I was weak, He knew that I let myself get in my own way.
He came to my rescue when I chose to call out to Him, and when I fell down on my knees to pray.
