Love.



Lately I have been pondering this thought: It breaks my heart when people walk away from Christ. I have been learning that sometimes people have to walk away in order to really find Christ. God's love is just so amazing that even when we sin or walk away His love for us is the same.  I just can't wrap my mind around His love.
"Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? As it is written:
For your sake we face death all day long; we are considered sheep to slaughtered. No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creations, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans 8:35-39

I posted lyrics below. I think that if you think this is about a boy and a girl love you are missing the point.

Emery: Ten Talents.

Last night I had a dream, that you decided to leave me,
and no matter what I said, my persuasion fell upon your deaf ears.

Don't leave me here alone. I'm not so good on my own.
I'm not so good. I'm not so good on my own.

Is it too late? Am I too gone? Is there something I should know?
Am I working for nothing? WIll there ever be anything to show?

Is it true? I don't know what the storybooks have told.
Though I wouldn't be so bold to say so.

Will I do what I'm told? Will I play my hand or fold?
WIll I stand my ground and hold?  I would like to think so.

But if I just walked way, would you still save me?
Or would you take back all that you gave me?

Is it took late? Am I too gone? Is there something I should know?
Are we working for nothing? IS there anything to show for the service?
Is it worthless? All the waiting is the hardest part.

Come home my dear because I love you. I love you still.

It's a slap in the face when I fell my complacency grow. 
It's the thrill of the chase, when you catch it you just let it go.
I take for granted the grace that is given me daily I know.

How can you say that you love me  when all that I want.
All that I want is your blessing and then I am gone.

Nothing I do can make up for things I have done.
Your love is all we need. We're gonna make it.
So let's close our eye tonight and just believe.

Thanks for reading. Peace.
