And the words just don't seem to come. It means so much that silence is the only thing that does it justice. Just to look into your eyes and know that we share our thoughts, to know that we are connected by something deeper than what is possible. When I fall apart, four hands pick me up. It's like a protective nest from you and God. Together you two intertwine and you are both nice enough to let me in on it, even just a little. But that's what love is. It's letting you know. Letting you know I'm still here (like God says), letting you know I'm there to help (like God is), letting you know there is always hope (like God tells us), letting you know I'll help pick you up and dust you off (like God comforts us), letting you know I will always forgive you (like God forgives), and letting you know I love you (like God does).
God is above the universe and beyond the heavens. He soars on mighty wings and envelopes the world with His glance. He watches everything that goes on in the Earth from His great, golden throne and He cares about every individual, every family, every friendship, everything. He knows all about us even though the giant stars blaze in front of Him and the magnificant planets rotate in the circles He outlined. Black tries to flee in His presence but has no where to go. Light dances with glee and the thunder tears apart the somber sky to reveal His blast of love and faithfulness. Nothing is too powerful for Him.
And this same God came out of glory and became like you and me, a lowly human. And He died a sinner's death in our place so we can live and be free and be happy.. and share that together. But He wants to be a part of it. “Nothing can separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” That's the God that I serve. That's the God that I know. And I know God loves me with more than a human love. He loves my very soul. He loves what makes me, me. And not just me, but everyone else in the Earth, the small planet He made just perfectly for us to enjoy. He doesn't think about Himself, but He looks out for our welfare and interests. And He pours out blessing after blessing on us. So what is there to worry about or to be sad about when He is by our side?
That is true love.
