Fel…Fel…Fel…

OVER MY HEAD - Brian Littrell

I tried to figure it out
Time and time again and time again
I guess there’s just some things I’ll never understand
‘Cause Your ways aren’t our ways
But deep down in my soul, down in my soul
There is one thing I know that I know

I’m in over my head
Right where I wanna be
I’m so lost within Your love
The love that always covers me
So high, so deep, so wide
A strong and cleansing tide
My soul has found a place to rest
I’m in over my head

I’ve been holding on
Now I’m letting go, just letting go
Gonna let Your love carry me away
I don’t know where I’m going
But I’m surrounded by the truth
And I can feel the current pulling me
Deeper into You
You see me for who I am
You did reach out Your hand
You made me understand
That Your love has always covered me

Such beautiful song by Matt Maher…. exactly describes the feeling I can’t describe by my own words… b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l….

Jesus, My Everything

I’ve been looking for a reason…I’ve been longing for a purpose…

I’m losing all my meaning…I’ve run out of excuses

Lord, it’s hard to know you…I don’t always see Your plan

But holiness is calling me, so take me as I am

You are my everything, You are the song I sing

I’ll do anything for You

Teach me how to pray, to live a life of grace

I’ll go anywhere with You

Jesus…be my everything

Lord, I get so tired of the struggle within

I settle in complacency and I’m weighed down in my sin

So lead me past emotion, cause they change with the wind

I want to be a true disciple, to daily choose Your hand

The world says that ‘love is blind’. It makes you want to do things beyond what you think you can do, creates a crazy rollercoaster ride in your life, and it sometimes makes a fool out of you. The world says, "I would do anything for love" as if you’d do anything without thinking…for love…?

But Love Himself has a 180 degree different point of view. "Kasih itu sabar, kasih itu murah hati; ia tidak cemburu. Ia tidak memegahkan diri dan tidak sombong. Ia tidak melakukan yang tidak sopan dan tidak mencari keuntungan diri sendiri. Ia tidak pemarah dan tidak menyimpan kesalahan orang lain. Ia tidak bersukacita karena ketidakadilan, tetapi karena kebenaran. Ia menutupi segala sesuatu; percaya segala sesuatu, mengharapkan segala sesuatu, sabar menanggung segala sesuatu" 1 Kor 13:4-7 . This doesn’t agree at all with what the world says about love. Christ sees Love as a sacrifice, self-giving act that you give willingly. Love is a decision –it has to be– because it surely is impossible to ‘deny’ ourselves without our full awareness in doing it; we can’t love blindly. See Jesus Who died on the Cross. Out of love, He gave Himself with full awareness of the suffering and pain of the Cross…to redeem the world. How I long to always give that same amazing love to others.

I learned not to love according to the ways of the world. I know now, that it doesn’t even worth a try. Without including Love Himself in our lives, all that’s left is loving in the darkness, in blindness, in foolishness… I believe in my God Who is a Healer, a Comforter, a Strong Tower, a Safe Refuge… I believe He has healed my blindness in seeing the Truth: True Love Himself.
