"He Pursues Me" Poem

He Pursues Me by Dana Arcuri

He pursues me in the darkness. He pursues me in the wilderness.

He pursues me when I’m lost and lonely.

He pursues me when I’m filled with doubts.

He pursues me when I am not devout.

He pursues me in my backbreaking battles in life.

He pursues me as I struggle with strife.

He pursues me as I search for Him.

He pursues me when I seek His Holy face.

He pursues me as He as He provides sovereign grace.

He pursues me with a sweet embrace.

He pursues me with never-ending hope.

He pursues me in a puddle of tears.

He pursues me when I’m paralyzed by fears.

He pursues me when He reveals He’s always near.

He pursues me in a sacred wandering where He tests my faith.

He pursues me as He keeps me safe.

He pursues me with signs and wonders.

He pursues me using vibrant red cardinals.

He pursues me relentlessly and He will never let me go.

He pursues me with His infinite love that gently overflows.

He pursues me as He woos me to follow His will.

He pursues me when He whispers, “Rest and be still.”

“Be still in the presence of the Lord, and wait patiently for Him to act. The Lord directs the steps of the godly. He delights in every detail of their lives. Though they stumble, they will never fall, for the Lord holds them by the hand.”

Psalm 37:7, 37:23-24
