I feel like posts on here get lost between the “pride” and “self pity” thought. I ask that you would bare with me for a moment. Because what comes is from my heart, one that is broken. Not hurt broken, but open and seeing things with new eyes. You see, I am learning something. Something that sounds like a no-brainer. And I guess you have to let things hit you for a while before it actually sinks in.
People need to be loved. I need to be loved. You need to be loved. Don’t try denying, there is no use. For we are made in love, through love, with love, and desiring love. I don’t mean in a “forever and always” kind of way although that is a part, I’m talking about needing love from anyone and everyone. Most importantly, by Him =)
If you haven’t heard it lately, hear it.. You are loved. Quite possibly in the most extravagant way possible. The love our God gives when we call to him not only satifies us, but leaves us wanting more at the same time. Funny, as if to say, “here I am, now come see more”
I can live with that. In fact, I’m more then happy to respond to that.
I always thought when I felt God was far, it was because he was. But I think its different, I believe that feeling is just the love we remember, telling us we haven’t had enough time with Him today. That ache, is him. Craziness
It makes it easier for me, to come to God when I know all he wants to do is say I love you. I see now how he doesn’t make us feel guilt shame, but instead calls us with love.
So instead of running away, run toward. Toward a love that is pushing you to go back to the beginning, love.
