1 Corinthians 13 - The Way of Love

¹²We don't yet see things clearly. We're squinting in a fog, peering through a mist. But it won't be long before the weather clears and the sun shines bright! We'll see it all then, see it all as clearly as God sees us, knowing him directly just as he knows us!

¹³But for right now, until that completeness, we have three things to do to lead us toward that consummation: Trust steadily in God, hope unswervingly, love extravagantly. And the best of the three is love.

Surrendered

In my heart of hearts where these battles rage
My strength it fails and my courage fades
In my distress I cry aloud to You

Thank you/ carve me

My Lord, my father, my protector, my creator.

I have not stopped and thanked you Lord, for what you have done for me. I wish to worship you with all my heart.

You give me water. You heal me, you show me love.

You are the carpenter who is carving me. Chipping wood off my rough edges. The pain will pass. Deep peeling pain, humiliation, defenselessness.

YOU are the ONLY one who will not fail, Lord.

You guide my steps in the darkness.

I adore you, I worship you. And now I can say wholeheartedly that I TRUST YOU. I trust you, I trust you, I trust you.

Help me to forgive those people who have hurt me. Forgive me for turning my eyes to humans and not to you. Forgive me for giving my love and admiration to those who do not deserve it. Forgive me for lending my body to anyone but you. Forgive me for not forgiving.

Give me the new life you promise God, but above all do YOUR WILL with me. Do anything. I TRUST you God.

CARVE ME like you are doing. It hurts God, it hurts so much... But you are with me, you console me. That is all I want. Stay with me, CHANGE ME.




Holy You are
Perfect and pure You are
Everything right You are
Yes, You are

Broken am I
Full of discord am I
Hungry for change am I
Oh, am I

Oh, to be like You
Oh, to reflect the God I know
The love You've shown
This is my longing
This is my deepest, strongest plea
Lord, change me

Would You change me?
Would You change me?

Love You are
Spirit and truth You are
Everything right/good You are
Yes, You are

Humbled am I
Contrite of spirit am I
Open to You am I
Oh, am I

Shattered

Shattered, broken heart. Humiliated, disappointed and hurt.

My trust went so far... and now I feel like I gave it in vain.

Over and over again God reminds me than man is imperfect, and that includes me.

God, heal my broken heart. Help me to want good for all people, even the ones that hurt me. Revenge, even most subtle, is never the answer.

If this is your plan, God, let it be.
