passion

1.He is jealous for me, Loves like a hurricane, I am a tree,
Bending beneath the weight of his wind and mercy.
When all of a sudden, I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory,
And I realize just how beautiful You are,
And how great Your affections are for me.

And oh, how He loves us oh
Oh how He loves us,
How He loves us all
He is jealous for me, Loves like a hurricane, I am a tree,
Bending beneath the weight of his wind and mercy.
When all of a sudden, I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory,
And I realize just how beautiful You are,
And how great Your affections are for me.

And oh, how He loves us oh,
Oh how He loves us,
How He loves us all
He loves us,
Oh how He loves us,
Oh how He loves us,
Oh how He loves.

And we are His portion and He is our prize,
Drawn to redemption by the grace in His eyes,
If His grace is an ocean, we’re all sinking.
And heaven meets earth like an unforeseen kiss,
And my heart turns violently inside of my chest, I don’t have time to maintain these regrets,
When I think about, the way…

That He loves us,
Oh how He loves us,
Oh how He loves us,
Oh how He loves.
Yeah, He loves us,
Oh how He loves us,
Oh how He loves us,
Oh how He loves.

I've been reading the shack and the content recently has been hitting me hard, the healing that God has for us, the love that He wants us to live in. Now the shack isnt the bible but it really attacks false presumptions that God doesnt care about my deepest hurt, that He is just the big guy in the sky who im going to meet someday, honestly i have had to repent for the mentality that God doesnt want a deeper relationship with me, and i hope that if you see yourself in a place that you are apathetic towards going deeper with God, that you will repent and cry out to Him. because it will bring the life more abundant, putting your roots deeper in Him. when i feel overwhelmed by how far i have to go, by how imperfect I am, I have to remember that all i can do is be open to Him and take the step towards Him he doesnt expect anything more. but if I cant look at Him as a loving Father, as my loving Father, then i have to move towards that, then i have to fight for that, because the devil will tell you that God doesnt care about you.
