ramblings on love

Sometime’s i’m overwhelmed by the love of God for us.
I can’t seem to love anything very strongly
for very long on my own at all, but He,
He loves me when i run from Him, when I 
fall away and only love myself
His love pursued me his love chose me
His love called me out from being dead
His love made me live and keeps me now
and i will never ever be forsaken
this is far more greatly dear to 
me than i could ever start to tell
this love just permeates my heart
the only son he ever had
the Father gave him up for ME
for me and you and HE
He went to die an awful death
just to save our rotten lives
we have finally been made free
we are fully free to be
all in love with all he is
able now to die to self
to love another more than us
to go beyond our own desires
love the God who loved us first
be the children he has loved
rest in Christ for he is home
know the spirit’s comforting
and someday soon
we’ll all be
fully
home.
