One Step Closer

That Secret Place

My heart is like a house
One day I let the Savior in
There are many rooms
Where we would visit now and then

But then one day He saw that door
I knew the day had come too soon
I said, “Jesus, I’m not ready
For us to visit in that room

‘Cause that’s a place in my heart
Where even I don’t go
I have some things hidden there
I don’t want no one to know"

But He handed me the key
With tears of love on His face
He said, “I want to make you clean
Let me go in your secret place."

So I opened up the door
And as the two of us walked in
I was so ashamed
His light revealed my hidden sin

*But when I think about that room now
I’m not afraid any more
‘Cause I know my hidden sin
No longer hides behind that door*

That was a place in my heart
Where even I wouldn’t go
I had some things hidden there
I didn’t want no one to know

But He handed me the key
With tears of love on His face
And He made me clean
I let Him in my secret place

Is there a place in your heart
Where even you won’t go

This is a song that a wonderful man sings at my church a lot and every time I get such a blessing out of it, and I hope you do too when you listen to it (that will be your challenge for today. Listen to the song. It is called Secret Place and I believe it's originally by the Booth Brothers, but there are many covers, so whichever you want to listen to is great!)

→I put asterisks around the paragraph that really touches me the most because it reminds me that even though I have sinned so much, God forgives and not only that, he can get rid of all the sin, all the things that I did in the past.
He can cleanse you and make you whole again! But don't forget to ask for forgiveness for it all, too!←

•This was kind of simple but I hope that you still take it and remember it and apply it to your life throughout this week! Thanks for reading! Have a wonderful, blessed week!☺
