While he was still a long way off, his father saw him and felt compassion for him, and ran and embraced him. Luke 15: 20

When God Ran (the music of Heaven)

Almighty God, the great I am
Immovable rock, omnipotent, powerful, awesome Lord
Victorious warrior, commanding King of Kings
Mighty conqueror, and the only time
the only time I ever saw Him run

Was when He ran to me, He took me in His arms
Held my head to His chest, said "My son's come home again"
Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes
With forgiveness in His voice He said,
"Son do you know I still love you?"
He caught me by surprise when God ran

The day I left home I knew I'd broken His heart
And I wondered then if things could ever be the same
Then one night I remembered His love for me
And down that dusty road ahead I could see
It was the only time - it was the only time I ever saw Him run

And then He ran to me, He took me in His arms
Held my head to His chest, said "My son's come home again"
Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes
With forgiveness in His voice He said,
"Son do you know I still love you?"
He caught me by surprise as He brought me to my knees
When God ran - I saw Him run to me

I was so ashamed, all alone and so far away
But now I know He's been waiting for this day

I saw Him run to me, He took me in His arms
Held my head to His chest, said "My son's come home again"
Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes
With forgiveness in His voice I felt His love for me again

He ran to me, He took me in His arms
Held my head to His chest, said "My son's come home again"
Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes
With forgiveness in His voice He said, "Son", He called me Son
He said, "Son do you know I still love you?"
He ran to me and then I ran to Him
When God ran

What an amazing song!

This song has touched my heart and I hope yours too...

it is based on a certain scripture from the bible.

When God Ran
(Scripture behind the song)

Luke 15

11And He said, "A man had two sons.
12"The younger of them said to his father, 'Father, give me the share of the estate that falls to me ' So he divided his wealth between them.

13"And not many days later, the younger son gathered everything together and went on a journey into a distant country, and there he squandered his estate with loose living.

14"Now when he had spent everything, a severe famine occurred in that country, and he began to be impoverished.

15"So he went and hired himself out to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.

16"And he would have gladly filled his stomach with the pods that the swine were eating, and no one was giving anything to him.

17"But when he came to his senses, he said, 'How many of my father's hired men have more than enough bread, but I am dying here with hunger!

18'I will get up and go to my father, and will say to him, "Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in your sight;

19I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me as one of your hired men."'

20"So he got up and came to his father. But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and felt compassion for him, and ran and embraced him and kissed him.

21"And the son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight; I am no longer worthy to be called your son.'

22"But the father said to his slaves, 'Quickly bring out the best robe and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand and sandals on his feet;

23and bring the fattened calf, kill it, and let us eat and celebrate;

24for this son of mine was dead and has come to life again; he was lost and has been found.' And they began to celebrate.

25"Now his older son was in the field, and when he came and approached the house, he heard music and dancing.

26"And he summoned one of the servants and began inquiring what these things could be.

27"And he said to him, 'Your brother has come, and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has received him back safe and sound.'

28"But he became angry and was not willing to go in; and his father came out and began pleading with him.

29"But he answered and said to his father, 'Look! For so many years I have been serving you and I have never neglected a command of yours; and yet you have never given me a young goat, so that I might celebrate with my friends;

30but when this son of yours came, who has devoured your wealth with prostitutes, you killed the fattened calf for him.'

31"And he said to him, 'Son, you have always been with me, and all that is mine is yours.

32'But we had to celebrate and rejoice, for this brother of yours was dead and has begun to live, and was lost and has been found.'"

 

This is how god feels about us...

He wants us to return to him

He wants to love us and celebrate our return to him too

He will be there for you and will never leave you. No matter what!

Why God Ran to You...

We have all failed to live up to what God expects of us. No one is able to perfectly keep God's commandments. The Bible states it simply, "All have sinned, and come short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23). Our disobedience separates us from our Creator. We need His divine forgiveness.

How can we be sure that God will forgive us? How can a perfectly just and righteous God overlook our sin?
We feel that God is able to forgive sin, but we don't see how.

The situation would have been impossible if God had not settled the issue Himself. He sent His Son to this earth to become a man and to ultimately give His life for you and me.

On the cross where Jesus died, He took the punishment for sin that we deserved. The Bible says God made Him, "to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him" (2 Corinthians 5:21).

Because of what Jesus has accomplished, it is possible to know that God will forgive you and one day receive you into Heaven. You can have the assurance of God's forgiveness by taking the following steps:

Recognize that your sinning separates you from God. In honest repentance admit your need for forgiveness: "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness" (1 John 1:9).

Realize that God loves you, and believe that Jesus Christ died for your sins: "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).

Receive Him into your life by faith and trust Him as your Savior: "As many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name" (John 1:12).

When you have followed these steps in faith, you can know that God has forgiven you. Right where you are you can pray something like this:

"Lord, I know that I have sinned and need your forgiveness. I believe that Jesus Christ died for me and arose from the dead. I invite Him into my life to be my Savior. I want to follow your leading in my life everyday. I love you Jesus."
