to be passionately in love.

"love is not proud, love does not boast, love after all matters most. love does not run, love does not hide, love does not keep locked inside. love is the river that flows through. love never fails you. love will sustain, love will provide, love will not cease at the the end of time. love will protect, love always hopes, love still believes when you don't. love is the arms that are holding you. love never fails you. when my heart won't make a sound. when i can't turn back around. when the sky is falling down. nothing is greater than this. greater than this. love is right here, love is alive, love is the way, the truth, the life. love is the river that flows through. love is the arms that are holding you. and love is the place you will fly to. love never fails you." -brandon heath.

"oh how He loves us" "how deep the Father's love for us" "I am eternally Yours" "You held on like a lover who couldn't let go of his bride" "I'm falling for You now" "my beautiful love" "don't you know that you are dearly loved" "i was made to love you" "That's what it takes to show you how much i love you" "Great is Your love and Your faithfulness" "A childlike love i had when we first began" "all i need is Your love" "I still love you beyond what words can say..."

for a while now, it seems like everywhere i go, everything i do, and in everything i hear the word LOVE is everywhere. especially referring to God's never ending love for us. i have also felt God's yearning for us to be madly and passionately in love with Him. it still seems as if something is quite fully there, though. and i can't quite figure it out... i am in the perfect position to be fully in love with God, and i am don't get me wrong, but i feel as if i'm not enough in love. as if i'm falling down on the job. i have a burning passion to be bale to feel this great love... and in ways, i do... but i also feel like there is so much more i could be doing. these past two days, the gears in my mind have just been turning non-stop. i've just been lost in my thoughts. and this actually has turned out to be the best thing for me. when i first realized that this theme of love was one that God was trying to get my attention with, i thought He was talking about loving others, but it turns out what He was trying to tell me is that my main priority right now should be to fall deeply in love with Him. My main love and passion should be for my creator: who loves me more than i could ever imagine.

[[this doesn't have a title yet...]]

i call your name, where are you?
the words you say, they aren't so true.
i heard your voice in the midst of the heartache.
up on this mountain, you seem so far away.

i love you so. child you are mine.
i hope you know, i gave up my life.
i want you to remember me
my precious love, eternity

[chorus]
you won't walk with faith so small
but when you stand, i will hold your hand
love of my life, lay down your pride
when you can't get through, i will carry you

look in the mirror what do you see?
do you even remember what you're like with me?
love of my life, don't forget this time
who you were when you were mine

[chorus]

i see you fall, i'll pick you up this time
it'll happen again, child please don't cry
when you're on your knees, remember this
i'll be here waiting with endless bliss

[chorus]
