I wish you knew that you aren't here by accident
I wish you knew that there is so much more to life than the one you are settling for.
I wish you knew that you don't have to settle.
I wish you knew that hope is real.
I wish you knew that this pain won't last forever.
I wish you knew that you're not too far gone.
I wish you knew that real love exists.
I wish you knew that God is good.
I wish you knew that Jesus came for messed up people.
I wish you knew that nothing about you could ever change that.
I wish you knew that your debt has been paid.
I wish you knew that good news is for you, too.
I wish you knew that what you think is freedom, is not really freedom.
But that true freedom is a real thing.
I wish you knew that it's not too late for you.
I wish you knew that healing is real.
I wish you knew that you don't need to hide.
I wish you knew that you don't need to pretend to be someone you're not.
I wish you knew that I love you for who you are.
I wish you knew that I'm not the only one.
I wish you knew how much I want to make your choices for you sometimes.
But I can't.
But I'm not giving up on you.
Because someone didn't give up on me.
I'm hanging on to hope.
And I'll hope for you when you can't bring yourself to believe it's true.
And believe with you for what we can't see yet.
Oh how I want you to taste this love for yourself.
Deep and wide and long and high.
I'll hope for the day that all the lies you've been told will be undone.
And all the tears will be wiped away from your eyes.
And you will see.
That your heart matters.
That you are more thought of, prayed for, worth it, forgiven, known, and loved
Than you know.
