| “I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love.”
~ Mother Teresa
I want to know what this means, I want to know what 1 Cor 13 means, what it looks like in real life in being, in action. I want to know the Jesus who loves me like this, until there is no more pain, only more love. | | |
| As I was driving home, my revelation of the day:
Because I am loved, I can be me.

Things that really stuck with me from worship and Jason Upton's sharing:
God is good... and He's smiling at me!
Jesus is Jesus, He's not who I think He is, He's not able to be boxed in. He's Him. :)
People want absolutes and certainties, but God wants relationship.
To surrender and live each day not knowing what's going to happen.
To always be wanting to help Him, that defines me as His child.
To write every moment down, because I have a story that is the only one like it, and that every moment is precious to Him. I really feel that in my life, that His will and my daily living are being worked in a deeper way.
I laughed a lot at his stories :) it was so good.

| Just finished reading The Messiah last week. I really enjoyed it :) maybe it's because I haven't read fiction in quite a while now, and there's something about fiction that expands my imagination, and makes me dream again. This book made me ache and hunger for His presence, and it was the first time the concepts "obedience" and "love" fully merged together as one for me. Jesus obeyed His Father completely not because He had to, but because He loved His Father so much, any other choice was not worth it to Him. He obeyed fully because He loved fully. | | |
| If My Heart is Overwhelmed
(Brian and Jenn Johnson)
Verse 1:
If my heart is overwhelmed
And I cannot hear Your voice
I'll hold to what is true
Though I cannot see
If the storms of life they come
and the road ahead gets steep
I will lift these hands in faith
I will believe
Bridge:
I remind myself of all that You've done
And the life I have because of Your son
Chorus:
Love came down and rescued me
Love came down and set me free
I am Yours
I am forever Yours
Mountain high or valley low
I sing out remind my soul
I am Yours
I am forever Yours
Verse 2:
When my heart is filled with hope
When every promise comes my way
When I feel Your hands of grace
Rest upon me
Staying desperate for you God
Staying humbled at your feet
I will lift these hands and praise
I will believe | | |
