Love Letter

I wrote the following as a meager expression of my feelings for God. It's incredibly difficult to attempt to use something as simplistic as letters strung together to make your heart known. The romance of the Father is life altering, mind blowing, all consuming, breathtaking, vital, beautiful, infinite. Being a fulfilled Christian without understanding and experiencing the romance, the love, of Jesus Christ is impossible. We have to move beyond just the word "Love" and enter into the experience, the reality of it.
"Faithful to the end, He will come and marry me"- oh, the beauty of that phrase. He woos us into the most perfect relationship ever experienced. The union that wrote the book on love.

No Words

I need to tell you

I need, somehow, to express

The depth, the height of what I feel

How do I convey what you’ve done?

How do I confess love to Love?

An adequate outpouring is impossible

If I could breathe color

Sing the wind and dance the sky

Release the deep from my fingertips

Even that would not suffice

Melodies vaporize and

Words melt from my tongue

In the face of your blazing beauty

My trembling hands raise it up

Still, everything is not enough

So, in this moment, my heart beats out

What my mind cannot conjure

A passionate percussion of eternal valentines

My life will, every day, lift up a standard of adoration

Rooftops will echo this refrain of desire

My spirit will walk this path of intimate knowing

Never ceasing to hunger for more

This is my offering, all I have to give

My heart, my will, my love, my life

I am yours.
