Love.

It was David's one year anniversary with us today. Which is exciting and heart breaking to know he could be gone soon. 

There's a whole bunch I could complain about. I specialize in complaining. But I'll stop there :)

I was sharing some songs with Dani that were inspiring me. One is called All of me. I told her the story behind the song, then I started singing it. She said it reminded her of David. The chorus goes,

You're gonna have all of me

You're gonna have all of me

Cause you're worth every fallen tear

You're worth facing any fears

You're gonna know all my love

Even if its not enough

Enough to mend our broken hearts

But giving you all of me is where I'll start

It was an eye opener. I've said so many times "I think I love David too much" but mom was right when she said you can't love someone too much. Yes my heart may break when he leaves. But while he is here I'm gonna give him all of me. He is worth the tears I cry and everything else this family has gone through for him. I love him more than words can express. And even though it hurts I want to be obedient to Gods call.

I guess I say these things to you to remind you...DON'T BE AFRAID TO LOVE

Mark 12:30-31 says,

And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ The second is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.” 

We've got to be people of love. The world will know us by our love. I don't know about you, but I yearn for my Heavenly Father! I want to be more like him! The bible says he is love. 

Thank you Lord for loving me so unconditionally! Show me how to love like you have loved me! Show me how to love the unlovable. Lord I want to be a person of love. I want to know you! You're my hearts desire! Lord take control and guide me in your steps. 

Amen
