Sitting in the presence of a 3 year old and an 11 year old is so loud. It’s hard to think at times and so easy to get annoyed, but I’m so filled with a love that passes all understanding that it doesn’t even matter. My heart is full of a longing that can only ever be satisfied in the presence of a king. It doesn’t matter how hard I try to resist or fill it with something else, he is unrelenting. He so longs for my heart, it’s crazy. He is the only person who could ever truly satisfy the longing in my heart, as well as the heart of everyone everywhere else.

I’m beginning to understand the way that Jesus yearns for the church. The way that he longs to see his bride(church) come to a full understanding of his love, and to love and serve him from this place. Jesus is such a lover, he knows all the desires of all hearts. If we long to know him then he will prove himself faithful. He wouldn’t put a desire or a longing in our hearts to know him if he wasn’t going to show us. I can’t even begin to explain the love that Jesus has for us. I can’t even explain the love that he pours out on me. Sometimes I’m spending time with him, and it is so sweet it comes to a point where food or sleep is the last thing that I need, my hearts only desire is to be with him.

The love of Jesus is so pure, he longs for your soul. He longs for your whole heart, and if you ask him he will pursue you, and love you. it doesn’t matter what you have done, or what you think that you have done. HE LOVES YOU. He knew that you were going to do that before he formed the foundations of the earth, but he still chose to love you. It’s all for love. Don’t be discouraged if you don’t have this or it hasn’t been revealed to you yet, just ask. Jesus longs to show himself faithful, as well as show himself as a lover. He will never let you down, that’s just not in his character.

So Jesus I ask that you would manifest your love in the hearts of everyone who reads this. That their hearts would be set on fire to the reality of your love. That you would plant love in their hearts and together you and them would begin to cultivate it and bring it to full term. Reveal yourself Jesus do what you love to do and just come. Baptize our hearts in new love, and don’t stop pursuing us until we are one with you, and we learn to abide in your love. Thank you so much for hearing me. I love you, Amen.
