Love seeks for thee...

Love seeks for thee…

Love seeks for thee,
A love that enlivens and is free.
Knows what you are,
Sees what you can be.

A love like no other,
That does not smother,
But, longs for you to experience,
Embrace, and share with another.

A love that is kind,
Does not put you in a bind,
One that liberates your soul,
Graces your heart, enriches your mind.

A love that will ever last,
Through it all and still hold fast.
Knows your faults,
Yet, values your potential as vast

A love that praises you at your best,
Heartens you when you fail a test,
Knows how many times you have fallen,
Yet, still pronounces you blest.

A love that grasps your deepest need,
Discerns what makes your heart bleed,
Encompasses you as a shield,
Guards you, always ready to intercede.

Love sought me at the cross,
Redeemed my wretched soul from loss.
Despite my unworthiness,
Love paid the full cost.

Love seeks for thee,
A love that enlivens and is free.
Knows what you are,
Sees what you can be.

The Lord hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with loving kindness have I drawn thee. Jeremiah 31:3 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost. Luke 19:10 I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. John 10:10b God is love… 1 John 4:8 God seeks for thee…
