oh how he loves us....


I cannot describe how much Christ has spoken to me today. Through other people, through just Himself. When I was honest, broken, weeping before Him. And He loves us. Promising to be with us in everything. Every situation that seems overwhelming. And just to love on His children. He loves us. And He is our comfort. Our protection. Our significance. He knows everything about us, He goes before us. But this life is not about us. It's about growing and as we know more about Him, He reveals Himself. Shows His glory, so others can see who He is. Breaking us to fill us with Him, so that we get a better picture of this God that is a mystery. Overflowing with thankfullness. Brokeness. Humility. But enormous encouragement. Thankful. Peaceful. Lifting my eyes to Christ.


Amazing lyrics...

"Oh how he loves us"
-John Mark Mcmillan
He is jealous for me,
Loves like a hurricane, I am a tree,
Bending beneath his wind and mercy.
When all of a sudden,
I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory,
And I realise just how beautiful You are,
And how great Your affections are for me.

And oh, how He loves us all,
Oh how He loves us,
How He loves us all

Yeah, He loves us,
Oh how He loves us,
Oh how He loves us,
Oh how He loves.
Yeah, He loves us,
Oh how He loves us,
Oh how He loves us
Oh how He loves.

We are His portion and He is our prize,
Drawn to redemption by the grace in His eyes,
If grace is an ocean, we’re all sinking.

So Heaven meets earth like a sloppy wet kiss,
And the heart turns violently inside of my chest
I don’t have time to maintain this regrets,
When I think about, the way…

He loves us,
Oh how He loves us,
Oh how He loves us,
Oh how He loves.
Yeah, He loves us,
Oh how He loves us,
Oh how He loves us,
Oh how He loves.
