I love you

You reach through all our failures and faults, just dying to tell us, "I love you". You break through our walls and defenses and tell us, "I love you". You find us where we are,

coming to us through beatings and mockings, to show us, "I love you". You speak gently to us with words that heal, "I love you". You cover us with glory and wipe away our shame with your "I love you".

You counsel and encourage with your promise, "I love you". You fill us and unite us in your, "I love you". You anoint us

with oil, "I love you". Your banner over us: "I love you". Your whisper reassuring us and leading us on, "I love you". Saving us and knowing us to be "I love you". What is best for us is knowing you, knowing your "I love you".

Wholeness is being completely surrendered to you, your "I love you". All the best creation has to offer, a gift from you, saying, "I love you". You are life, breathing in us, "I love you". You open our eyes to your glory, the beauty of your Word, "I love you". Seated with you in the heavenlies, "I love you". Nothing could tear this place, this relationship, this reality away, "I love you". Your love is more real than anything and I love you.
