I don’t remember the day I was born, but You do. I don’t remember my first birthday, but You do. I don’t remember what I wore the day I asked You to be my Everything, but You do. I don’t even remember the exact time I woke up yesterday, or how long it took me to get ready, but You do. I don’t know how many strands of hair I have on my head, but You do. I don’t know how much I weight right now, but You do.
I’m not perfect. Most times I knowingly disobey
You because I’m fearful. More often than I should, I let unimportant things and
people get in the way of us. I prioritise selfishly, putting my needs, my
desires, and my wants before You.
You say, beautiful
daughter of mine, you are fearfully and wonderfully made. Look, I’ve written
your names on the backs of my hands. The walls you’re rebuilding are never out
of my sight. How can You love me? Perfect as You are, righteous in all Your
ways, Sovereign God, perfect in all Your ways, right in all You do. Faithful
when I am faithless. Unchanging when I am tossed about by this storm and that. You, who are merciful and gracious, slow
to anger and abounding in steadfast love. All have
sinned and fall short of my glory, I have
loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with
unfailing kindness. Neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor
things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all
creation, will be able to separate you from My
love in Christ Jesus. You remind me of the
sacrifice of Your son, made while I was still drenched in sin. Your love is not
a function of who I am or what I do, but on whom You are. You love me because
You decided to, for You and not for me. Not because I am perfect, we both know I’m
not. I am for you. Who can be against
You?
Sometimes I get scared- things aren’t going the way they should,
I get confused and don’t know what to say or do. I have not given you the spirit of fear, but of power love and a sound
mind. Trust in me with all your heart; do not depend on your own
understanding. Seek My will in all you do, and I will show you which path to
take. My Spirit is right alongside helping you along. If you don’t know how or
what to pray, it doesn’t matter. He does your praying in and for you, making
prayer out of your wordless sighs, your aching groans. He knows you far better
than you know yourself, knows your pregnant condition, and keeps you present
before Me. That’s why you can be so sure that every detail in your life of love
for God is worked into something good.
Thank You Lord for the sacrifice of Your only son. Thank You for
this love of Yours that never, no not ever fails. Thank You for never ever
leaving me. For taking me through the fire and the water, making me stronger,
better and more like You with each passing day. Thank You for healing, for
provision, protection, grace and mercy. You have seen me through so much; Your
strength is constantly made perfect in my weakness. When I am hungry You feed
me. Broken, you heal me. Lost, you gently bring me back to You. Confused, You
direct me. There is none that compares with You, my Everything. You are the
source of my strength, the strength of my life, the solid rock on which I stand, the author and
finisher of my faith, the pillar that hold this life of mine together. There is
nothing I have that didn’t come from You. These hands of mine that You have blessed
so much I lift in praise to You. Holy are You Lord almighty. Perfect is all
that You do. Thank You for this constant, unshakeable love of Yours. There is
nothing that compares to it; not even the comfort of bread (lol and You know I LOVE
bread! You know EVERYTHING about me even things I don’t know).
You blow my mind with the songs You put on my lips. Your
testimonies in my life leave me speechless. Who is there in heaven, on earth or
even under it that dares compare with You? I know I’m not where You want me to
be, but I’m not where I used to be either- and that’s all thanks to YOU. No one
will share Your glory; take it ALL Lord.
We are on our way. Thank You, thank You, Thank You.....for EVERYTHING for this love of Yours that I can never get rid of, even if I wanted to (errr which I don’t oh).
So my Lord, my King, My Lover, my Valentine.....happy valentine
to You oh Lover of my soul.
Love now and forever
The one You call precious
