I've Fallen in Love, With You

[A love song with my Savior, Jesus Christ]

Be still my child,
I’m teaching you, to follow me, to know me,
I’m teaching you, to love me, above all else,
Don’t be so concerned with the law, my dear,
Don’t be like the pharisees, they know my laws,
But they don't know me,

Love me, love me, my child
I surround you with my love,
I made you, for my pleasure,
My child,
I want to enjoy you,

Daughter of Jerusalem,
You move me to my very core,
Your love for me,
Makes me weep with tears of joy,
This is why,
I share my deepest secrets,
With you,

I love you,
I chose you,

I’ve already made the way for you,
Don’t worry,
Its all going to be okay,
I am filled with jealousy for my bride to be,
But I am in love with you,

You are beautiful,
Your aroma is pleasing to me,
Enjoy my presence,
And,
I’ll enjoy yours,
You gaze on my beauty,
And I gaze on yours,

Daughter,
No need to be anxious,
I have you in my hand,
I will carry you,
To the very end,
You are mine,
And I am yours,

We are one,
And nothing,
In heaven or earth,
Can separate us,

I have fallen in love with you,
And I see, that you too,
Have fallen in love,
With me,
My tears of joy spill onto you,

Rest in this peace my lover,
It will be with you always,
In every darkness to come,
In the dreams of death and destruction you have,
I will be with you,
To the end,

Nothing now,
My dear,
Can separate, you, from me,
I am in love with you, and I will never let you go,
I paid the ultimate price for you,
I will have you,
And I love you, for all eternity

-on the white horse he rides, to come for His bride

Joyful Waiting!

My dear friend just wrote a blog called “Pause”. I met her in during my Justice DTS, and even though we didn’t go on the same outreach (she went to Africa, and I went to Haiti), God blessed us with 3 months of living within 30 minutes of each other back in my hometown. This was such an amazing gift from the Lord, we were able to spend time together processing our experiences, sharing all our thoughts, worrying about the future, wondering why everything at home seemed so different, and seeking the Lord in prayer together. Looking back now, my thankfulness for her, and the many wonderful people God placed in my life during my time at home steadily increases.

My time now in Kona during the School of Circuit Riders has been so full of blessing, challenge, growth, revelation, and understanding. The Lord’s mighty power has been repeatedly demonstrated through the Holy Spirit, my trust the Lord’s goodness surpasses my understanding, and I now understand the importance of deep intimacy in with Jesus Christ, this is what matters most. My direction for the future is even more unclear, yet somehow, so much clearer. Life becomes quite simple when deep intimacy with Jesus is your first priority and this is what I was missing when I went to Haiti.

So why did I mention my friends blog called “Pause”? Well, that is where I am, everything just started to become still, and then pause, the Lord speaks “Wait”, the only word I hear. Every time I hear this word, I have a picture in my mind of the Lord intricately weaving out my future as He unveils one step at a time to me, and I love Him so much for it. He knows exactly what I need.

So I wait on the Lord, so excited about the practical steps He is unveiling to me, but even more excited about pursuing deep intimacy with Jesus. I am so blessed.

Luke 10:27 ESV
“And he answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.”
