Your Love For Me Is Overwhelming

Eleven years ago today I married my highschool sweetheart. He's away at camp and here I am alone with my thoughts but I know it's not by mistake. He's so hardworking he deserved a weekend away with the guys and my God had more to reveal to me about His love and He used this weekend to overwhelm me.

"You can love me more in a moment than other lovers could in a lifetime"

Let's go back to the beginning...Genesis. God created the heavens and the earth. Why?

For me! (For You)

Look at the beauty around you and it is proof of God's love. So why isn't HIS love enough? We women we melt with the sappy fairytales. We long to be the princess the prince rescues. We long to be pursued. Guess what? Even if our earthly lover isn't always the best example of mr prince charming give him a little slack since he's human and just not perfect but be encouraged that we have a God a perfect God who rescued us from death. We have a God who pursues us..HE chases us daily but do you block it at times like I block it? Or maybe ignore is a better word.. I ignore HIM and all HE wants is for me to crave HIM. All HE wants is ME, my time, my relationship, my love EVERYTHING but I'm too busy with my worldy pleasures I'm too busy being distracted and planning my own life that I don't always accept the pursuit. He's waiting with open arms every moment of everyday. Why isn't that enough? Why do I search for something I already have?

God my soul longs for you! God I desire to live a life so passionate for You a life so passionate that I get excited over something like brushing my teeth! God this life...this life You gave us is so absolutely amazing I desire to enjoy every bit of it! I desire to have everything YOU want me to have. Your ways are better God YOUR will not mine! I desire to be so close to YOU that I walk in your presence constantly. I long to be so in tuned with YOU that when I walk into a room the hairs stand up on people's arms because they feel YOU. The atmosphere immediately changes because of YOU! Your love God Your LOVE is so overwhelmingly beautiful! It's so much sweeter than anything I've tasted God! I accept the pursuit! Pull me closer God I want to know your heart! The more I find YOU the more I LOVE YOU! I praise you God!
