“you are more than the choices that you’ve made. you are more than the sum of your past mistakes. you are more than the problems you create. you’ve been remade. this is not about what you’ve done, but what’s been done for you.” you are more by tenth avenue north

“in my life you’ve heard me say i love you. how do i show you it’s true? hear my heart. it longs for more of You. i’ve fallen deeply in love with you. you have stolen my heart. i’m captivated. by you. never will you and i part. i’ve fallen deeply in love with you. you and i together forever. nothing can stand in the way. my love for you grows stronger each new day. ” deeply in love by hillsong.

prayer:

papa, i’m crawling up and curling up into your loving arms. i’m letting you wipe away my tears and whisper my name, “hephzibah.” i’m leaning back and looking up into your face. i love you, not for what you can do for me, not for what you are working out for good, not for the miracles, not for so many things. even though, i know you are doing those things and i am thankful for them. you are who you say you are. but. papa, i love you. simply. you. i’m captivated by you.

verse:

love (god’s love in us) does not insist on its own rights or its own way, for it is not self-seeking….its hopes are fadeless under all circumstances, and it endures everything [without weakening]. -1 cor. 13
