Whoo! (:

 I fell in love with Him all over again today.

I can't believe after all these years, I never saw His heart until today.
His love made my heart come alive, my eyes sparkle, and joy to overflow within me.
I missed out on so much in the past. I wish I heard His words written just for me earlier. I wish I never turned my face away when He tried over and over again to whisper in my ear of His love for me.

What made my heart cry out today were the affirmation of knowing no matter how weak my love is for Him, He's good with any amount of love I have within me for Him. For when I'm in my weakness, He shows me what He sees within me.  Not failures, but the weak love He will strengthen.

For I was like Peter, and still am, who denied and will keep denying Him in many circumstances. Instead of hating me, punishing me, He will come to me like He went to Peter: with gentleness, with open arms, with the agape love that I need. He will ask me, "Do you love me?" countless times just to let me see what He sees in me: my weak love that He will strengthen.

For I was like Peter and will still be.
But one day, He will strengthen within me a love that will one day glorify Him, even in my death.

Now I love him fearlessly. Undoubtedly.

Now I surrender completely. 

John 21:15-17
