He is our portion, we are his prize
Drawn to redemption by the grace in his eyes
If grace is just a notion, we are sinking...
Heaven meets earth with a sloppy wet kiss
and My heart turns violently in my chest
I don't have time to maintain these regrets
when I think about the wayyyyyy
He loves us.. oh, how He loves us... oh how, He loves us...
I've heard it a thousand times- keep your focus on Jesus (which is followed by the standard story of Peter walking on the water). Wow, is humanity horrible at this or what?... you see this lack of focus in the lives of Christians too and lives are negatively impacted. I've always intellectually accepted "focusing on Jesus" but on a certain level, I dismissed the notion in my heart as "church speak." Just like the lyrics say, though... I don't have time to maintain regrets (or a whole litany of other problems and addictions) when I think about the way He loves us. It is truly overwhelming yet perfectly satisfying. Pursue it.
"...Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind."
Matthew 22:37
Otherwise, 1 year anniversary this weekend- we are going to Munich.
I've been insanely excited about Texas Rangers baseball for some reason (MLB just started, ladies). I had grown weary of baseball in recent years but it has a newfound excitement. GO RANGERS!!!!
be blessed,
Jason
