The Great I Am

He was there for me 
When I needed someone 
I couldn't see him
Yet he was patient 
Understanding 
Not mad
He was there with me
When I went through life
He still is

I thought  the door to my heart was closed
Chained
All it took was a command 
From him
For The chain to fall at  his feet
Broken
Did he enter
No
An invite 
He was waiting for 
Did he receive 
No

Because why
I didn't see him
I didn't hear him
I was drowning in life
Trying to swim to the shore
Not realising 
The one who  can save me
Was waiting at the door
For an invite

Was he still there?
Yes 
Waiting 
Was he patiently 
 received me with a smile
Even when I didn't receive him
The only one with a gracious heart
The Great I AM
