A song we all sing.. love and to be loved.

Wicked ways, a sinful heart.. and only one who looks past every unkempt end and unsaid word, every slip up and stumble. The harder I fall the more He reaches out and that very simple love whisper stops me in my tracks, hits me like a brick wall in the most gentle, overwhelming and loving way even possible. Things just get so busy and everything seems to be never ending with an ever increasing deadline to meet. A love so great, a love so raw that you can't walk away the same. His love is. His love is now. It is always. His love is here. It will follow. His love is gracious. His love is kind. His love is indescribable.. it does not fit in your caption or quote, nor the box of your mind. It is kept. It is messy good and it is of endless supply. It is for you.. it is for me. And best of all His love is free and will always be. I love when I become receptive to the things He is trying to show me. Sometimes you just have to shut yourself down.. Forget about the here and now and think about what really is going to be, what is of ultimate value? When you take away the money, materialistic items, and the entitlements what is really sitting there.. People die, money spends, things get old and run down. If you take away anything you have ever bought, owned or known what would be left? For He knew us in womb, even before we have ever been conceived or thought of. Cherished. Loved. Rooted. Cared for. In love with. He was completely for us before there was even a chance of us. We Him because He has first loved us. And to love others the way He has loved us will forever be one of the greatest gifts we will give or can give. Compassion. Love. Kindness. Gentleness. Goodness. Hope. Grace. Forgiveness. If you want it, it is right there. Take it.. stop where you are, whatever you may be doing and open up the door that you've held shut for too long.
