There is a God who loves me
Who wraps me in His Arms
That is the place where I'm changed
And that's where I belong
CHORUS:
Take me to that place Lord
To that secret place where
I can be with You
You can make me like You
Wrap me in Your Arms
Wrap me in Your Arms
Wrap me in Your Arms
There is a secret place where God is constantly waiting for us to go to. When I was thinking about this song a few minutes ago the first thing I thought of was the secret place that Psalm 139 talks about.
15 My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,
16 your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me
were written in your book
before one of them came to be.
This secret place seems to hold time in its entirety because the psalmist says that this is the place where we were woven, where we were knit and where every moment of our lives was planned with great care and consideration.
But while this may be the place we were created that does not mean we are supposed to avoid it. On the contrary, we should be visiting the secret place every time we venture into prayer and every time we worship. Because in this secret place God reveals himself to us.
Now I don't believe its like a secret club house with a note saying "no girls allowed" as some of you might picture but Rather its called the secret place because
-No one can venture there but you and God- you cannot take anyone with you just as you cannot take anyone with you on judgement day. But the secret place is where you are alone and intimate with your savior.
-No one can hear what you are saying and no one will be able to know the burdens on your heart. Its a secret place because we venture there with sin stained hearts and leave with them soaked in the redeeming blood of Jesus. Sins enter but forgiveness is left in its place.
The song calls for Jesus to wrap us in his arms, to take us to this secret place SO THAT we can be like him, be with him.
The secret place is available to all of us if we would just ask for Jesus to take us there.
Have a Blessed Week & God be with you :)
