Today in my churches worship service we sang "He loves us", and during that song I felt lead to clode my eyes as i often do so I can worship God with out distractions, But when i closed my eyes i saw them....
I saw the faces of the peolpe I have written off as lost forever, people I have lost relationship with, people I love, And they were singing" oh how he loves us." they spun around me and at one point I had to open my eyes to take a break from thier faces, It was too much. I felt so much hurt ,disappointment, and loss for each and everyone of them. But I also felt HIS love for them. We sing this song so much and we become so selfish with it at times like He loves those who are good and in this service with us,but no He loves all of us. I have this, well a few old friends God always keeps on my heart,at one point guilt and anger kept them there but God freed me of that and instead put the word love on my heart and it has become my obession to figure out how the church can love better. So many will read this and write it off as whatever they want but they will miss the truth here God puts love in us and we need to share it. Not in the gross tv fake version of love but the real love the love that makes you fight for someone the love that makes you go out of your day to day and think of someone other than the yourself or the people that are nice to you. Yes them, but dont forget the under dog the ,little guy, the person you dont want to love because by the worlds standards you have every right to walk away not show them love. I was at meeting for work and they had all the new employees stand and in the sea of names they called that of my 1st boyfreind someone who had hurt me in many ways in my past someone who the world would it was ok to hate and to not show love or kindness to,but we forget that those we write off he God has written on his heart. So when a break came and the halls were full and my ex ened up next me I said "Hello", not alot of love you might think, but it was what God would have done a hello to a man who thought the would have gotten a verbal beat down from an angry ex. I ask you to pray about this word love and think next time you hear" oh how he loves us" how many us' are in the world and how many can you show Gods love to.
