Your Love

Your love is like an ocean.

It washes upon the shore.

It gazes into the depths and will not let go of my soul.

Your love is like the ocean,

it glistens in the sun,

with the light of your radiance that shimmers with the dawn.

Your love is like an ocean,

to what can I compare.

Its height, its width, its depth so wide

could never quite compare.

Your love is like an ocean,

how I long

to discover its depth,

to bask upon your waters

and explore your forever shore.

Your love is like an ocean,

its mysteries are sure.

I long to gaze into your love,

to embrace you to the core.

But…

But the Fruit of the Spirit is Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness, and Self-Control. Against such things there is no law.

I have been meditating on this verse for the past few days. It keeps coming to my mind. Lord, I need more of your fruit. I need to remain closer to you, closer to your heart, so I will know, so I will be more like you. This is my ultimate desire. I want you to reign in my life and fill it with whatever you wish to fill it with.

If you remain in me and my words remain in you, you will bear much fruit. Apart from me you can do nothing.

Thank you Lord Jesus. Amen.  You are the one I love forever.  Forever you will remain.  Thank you that it is not over when I say Amen. 

Thinking, Thinking (I Seem to Never Stop)

I have been thinking about a lot of things today, and I am trying to wrap my mind around all of my thoughts.

I am so thankful for prayer.  I am thankful that God allows me to feel and feel deeply.  I am thankful for all the wonderful people He has placed in my life who add so much love, joy, and encouragement to every part of me.

I have been thinking, so I will get back to it, and try to write more as I continue to reflect on everything that has crossed my mind this day.

I have been thinking and I really need to be still and know that He is God.  Lord Jesus, let my mind relax in you.
