Love Love Love...
(I was asked to write something for valentine day reading. Wrote this... No better time to celebrate true love.)
Love has merged itself with
this fragile but hard heart. Its gentle touch has broken it down and something
stronger has emerged.
This collision of love and
rebellion has weaved a toe-curling story of grace so beautiful, so romantic.
A blistering heat from head
to toe, and heartbeats that feel like a storm is raging withiin.
Unchartered territories are
taken,
Undreamed dreams are lived.
Love has taken a different
twist… its beyond the fairy tales and empty words
Oh, its not about empty
words… its about words of power like…
“I have loved you with an everlasting love” Jer 31:3
Love forever… I expect love love more love.
He answers even before you call on me
He gives me a rich and satisfying life
He’s my ever-present help… no bathroom breaks. Ever
present.
He delights over me with singing
It’s no longer empty whispers
in the dead of the night.
It’s a still small voice that
is louder than a thousand thunders
Words that quickens the heart
to live and to conquer…
Love conquers all right?
Love has caused me to be weak
in my knees by its power.
It’s brought me to my knee
just knowing it exist… just being in its atmosphere
Love has given my heart
words… words that have no sound, words that can only be expressed with arms
outstretched, knees shaking and eventually giving way, laying prostrate in reverence…
Worship!
Love has given me a bloody
cover…
Its mercy is a salve over my
flaws… love sees me through the looking glass of perfection
Love has covered my ugliness
with beauty
My weakness with strength
My foolishness with wisdom
My darkness with light
My filth with its
righteousness
My restlessness with its
gentle rest... I lay down in green pastures
He’s holding my hands, as we
stroll beside still waters… no hustle, comfortable silence.
Love has covered me.
I am bold… bold as a lion. Love
has made me brave, for this perfect love has cast out every fear.
Today I celebrate love in its
rawest form,
Love, which has bent down and
picked me up. Reached out into the mud and brought out this being and has patiently,
diligently cleaned and remolded me, made me whole and made me better,
perfecting me with each breath I take.
Love that is life.
Love has kissed me and I have
no choice but to tell.
As He is, so am I… thus I am
love.
Love will never leave or
forsake me… peas in a pod!
I am the word made flesh. I
am love made flesh… I am love.
I am kind, I am patient, I do
not envy, and I do not boast, I am not proud, I do not dishonor others
I am not self-seeking, I am
not easily angered, and I keep no record of wrongs… I do not delight in evil
but rejoice with the truth. I always protect, always trust, always hope, always
persevere… love never fails.
I am one with love and love
is one with me. Intertwined with its beauty
Illuminated with it’s light.
In the spirit of valentine, let me add my two cents;
ReplyDeleteSome say its giving,
others say its sharing,
but I say it is God,
because God is love.
#stolen.
That sums it all!
