True Love
If I ripped you apart inside, if lied to your face, would you still love me?
Would you still love me?
And if I cried a thousand tears and if I scaled a mountain and took 10 years, would you still love me?
Would you still love me?
If I died a thousand deaths, if I lived a thousand lives, would you still love me?
Would you still love me?
I want to walk into a room and know you are still there; I want to know do you still love me? And if held onto your heart and tripped and fell, would you still me?
Would you still love me?
And if dived into the sea, tried to make it on my own, would you still love me?
Would you still love me?
And if I laughed when you cried, if I tore you up inside would you take me by the hand, tell me you love me to the end?
Who will separate us from the love of Christ? Will tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:35, 37-39
What can separate us
From the love of Jesus Christ
Nothing this world can even change
The thought I once was lost
But now been given grace
It's a mystery that I will not chase
You are all this heart is longing for
Jesus, you are all my soul is pleading for
I don't understand it
How you love the way you do
Even when I've fallen
You always lift me up to you
(Jeremy Camp)
How can you love us so? We are so broken. I cry out "it's no use leave me for dead," but you won't. You won't leave any of us, not one! You take us in you arms and will never let us go. Nothing can separate us. Thank you.

That is awesome. I like the way you write. I think that God is really great. I just wanted to say that I love that post, I am not really sure what to think, as I know that stuff, but I also know that most the time, I don't feel God's love so much, like that, like this... But what you wrote is truth, and it is encouraging. Thanks heaps.
Christa... today I met with him and it was so clear... his love for me. He is almost entirely made out of love Christa... I see it where before my sight was blocked by my refusal to simply trust. It is incredible and even now I can barely grasp it! But i am learning that that isn't as neccessary as to just believe... and relax. Thank you for writing this. Like I told you before, I haven't rarely seen such a beautiful outpouring of somebody's heart and I have gone back to it over and over to just revel in it and think about it... you are beautiful :)
