I'm Falling In Love

Do you know what the most incredible grace in the world is? When Jesus speaks directly to your soul. I am so amazed that He cares enough about me that when He sees that I am drifting away, He takes all measures to get me back. Sometimes it might take a shock. It might take pain and suffering to get me back...but He does. It hit me the other day when I was talking to my mom about my highschool years, that I haven't been the easiest daughter to raise...lol
My mom would never say that but looking back on everything I have done and every crazy path I've traveled on, my parents have shown the greatest love and support all along the way!
The point is, sometimes you've gotta fall down before you realize that its no one's fault but your own that you've hit the ground AGAIN. Whenever I seem to loose control of my life, its than that God intervenes and takes control. It astonishes me that I keep on trying to take control when all I need to do is turn to my Father in Heaven and say "I trust you"
It all comes down to surrender in the end...surrendering everything to God.

I have big news...I am falling in love!!! And its the greatest gift in the world!
He makes me want to get up and scream how much I love Him!!! I am falling in love with a perfect man. I am falling in love with a king. I am falling in love with my Creator. I am falling in love with a man who wants me to be with Him forever...eternity!!
I am falling in love with Jesus Christ.
So why not let Him be your love? He's mine. I am falling so in love with Him. Seriously, if you are not falling in love right now...listen to Him. He is proposing to you right now!
It is time to discover the life-changing intimacy with Jesus that you are called to and the ultimate love relationship of all time!! No matter what your age or love status, you are His bride and the very object of His affections. The secret to an abundant life lies not in steps, rules, or other people, but in developing a deep love relationship with Jesus, letting His intoxicating love bring life to you, and abandoning yourself to the greatest romance of your life!!
Personally, when I check my deepest desires out and I dig deep...at the root of everything lies this wild desire to belong to Him and to love him. Falling in love can be hard because of trusting and because as human beings we do fail each other. So falling in love with Christ should be the easiest most wonderful experience in the world! He is trust. He is love. He is safety and peace and everything our hearts long for. There comes a time when everything fades around us and as we watch our walls fall down, we realize we are'nt strong enough and we no longer feel safe. But if Jesus Christ is the center of our lives and we are in love (in a personal relationship) with Him, He will raise us above all our pains, our failings and other's failings as well and we will stand unbroken before Him.
Personally, I want to loose myself in Him and let Him capture my heart. I know I am tired of running away because love doesn't seem safe. Love will be safe when your ONE TRUE LOVE is Christ.
(Yet another thing I have heard my mom say over and over and over again..."He is my only true love." - Her solution to everything and it is pretty amazing)
The answer to everything is Jesus. So lock eyes with Him and He will take care of everything around you!!
