LOVING LIKE YOU

From the beginning you were there...loving me. It was real. It was pure. It was complete. You've revealed layers of the depths of your love drawing me closer and closer. There were times when I was lonely. I recognized early that I was created different and set apart from the crowd. Filled with wonder and great longing, my heart did melt, then the warmth of your love did encompass me. There was no one to understand. There was no one to fathom the work that you had begun in me. In the midst of a great work I did run away quickly finding out the difference between what was real and what was fake. Your Holy Spirit kept me long before receiving the indwelling. Through every crisis, through every scenario, through every rejection, you were there. No greater love is there than a man lay down His life for a friend. You are a friend indeed! To know the length, breadth, depth,and height of such a love...How do I show forth that same love in its purest form such as you have? I want to love like you do! Teach me to die daily so that your purified love can be perfected in me.
