from a dark corner I watch...
I see light in the horizon... could it be real? is there light at the end of this tunnel?
"No."
I hear a voice... a voice talking to me... I turn... no-one's there... I must be going crazy...
"You're not crazy... I am here... But you can't see me."
I rush to my feet. What is this? I feel someone near me, but I can't see anything... the light in the horizon is just not bright enough...
"Don't be afraid... I'm not here to hurt you..."
The voice pauses for a second... I stand in awe.
"What would you do if I told you... That I am here to hold you? To save your from hell... To save you from yourself"
That's it... I'm definitely going crazy now... I can't believe there's a voice in the same dark corner I find myself in... and this voice now asks me questions...
It must be only an illusion... I sit down again. Watching that dimmer light far away from me
"No... I'm not an illusion... I am as real as the blood running through your veins... I am as real as that pain you feel in your chest... I am as real as the tears running down your face... I am real."
How can it be? How can this be? Why do I feel arms holding me??? Where does this peace come from? Who is here?
"I am the one who bled for you... I am the one who was cursed at for you... They hung me from a cross... And I let them... Because I love you."
"I have loved you since before you were born... Come with me"
Somehow I rise to my feet. I start walking... I don't feel so alone anymore... I look back to that dark corner... It's smaller and smaller... Farther away from me... As I turn to face the dimmer light I realize... My footprints are on the ground... But next to them there are more footprints... I stop. Look around. Nobody's there. My footprints... Someone else's footprints...
"I told you... You can't see me... But I'm here... Don't be afraid... I'm not going anywhere."
I walk... and walk... and feel the light on my face... It's getting warmer and warmer... The light gets brighter and brighter as we walk towards it... It looks like... Fire
The world is on fire... The world is burning... My city. My house. Everything I ever knew... Is gone... Everyone I ever met... Is dead... There's nothing left but fire and ashes... My life is ablaze...
"This is where you come from. Your life... This is your life before your eyes. Everything is burning to the ground."
Fall to my knees. I cry. My life...
"This is your past. This is not you. Maybe one day this was you. Today, you are with me. And together, we will walk. To a better life. To a better world. Would you like to come with me? Would you like me to be with you? We will build a new life; together."
Let Him take you.
He will not harm you.
He died for you.
He died for you.
Will you walk with Him?
Will you build a new life?
This is only... The beginning
