love

God,

I love you more than I can contain myself.
It’s ridiculous. It’s insane.
And I am so very thankful for it.
If someone asked me why am I so pleasantly peaceful and happy,
answer would have to be because of You.
If someone asked me what am I thinking about,
answer would have to be how much I love Jesus.
I can just see the crazy stares and the disbelief.
and the condemnation to come…but hey, I am what I am.
and it is what it is…all I can do is love as You have loved me.
I don’t know why You are giving me all this love and presence today
but all I have to say is thank you and by all means
bring this goodness anytime…all the time.

It is times like these that I try to hold on to as long as possible.
So that, when there are times where I cannot feel Your presence,
I cannot feel Your love and I cannot feel You near –
I can look back to the days where I could, and
I will remain hopeful praising You all the way until my feelings return.
