The Love of God
(I found this email that I had written a few months ago in my drafts folder at work today. I had totally forgotten about it. Don't mind the crazy grammar. It's so cool that this was my heart cry a few months ago...it seems so new again)
The love of God. Say it slow -- The LOVE, the essence of life, the reason for breathing, the sense in the chaos, reality at its best, reality at its worst, that kind of LOVE; of God, the Holy One, the Creator, the Alpha and Omega, the King of kings, the Lord of lords, the end-all-be-all Truth and Life, essence of Forgiveness, and reason for living. The love of God.
And His is for me.
Father, I pray, from the very depths of who I am, from my heart I cry out to You, let that be what I really, honestly, fully, and devotedly seek after. Your love, and all that it entails. And I mean all -- if I've gotta be silent for 40 days, if I've gotta fall flat on my face every time I'm in Your presence, if I've gotta hurt for the rest of my life in order to get that kind of love, then so-be-it.
