I have been listening to a song called 'Unstoppable Love' by Kim Walker-Smith and her husband Skylar Smith. She in the song sings this "God you pursue me with power and glory, unstoppable love that never ends. You're unrelenting with passion and mercy unstoppable love that never ends." It brings tears to my eyes, it penetrates my very being. His love is so overwhelming. He says to us, "My love you're worth it all." If you don't believe that go to what the bible tells us. He died and suffered on a cross and gave up everything so that we may live and know God. That sacrifice made it possible for us to live. I never want to be separated from a love that great. It is the greatest love story ever told. We can not stop His love, He will pursue you.
This past weekend has been the hardest weekend of my life. I went to a counseling session with my husband Sunday evening. I left with my mother to give me a ride home. I sat there telling her what had transpired, and all I could do was sit there. I was not distressed, in fear, or worried. I instead was abiding in His love. I wept for my husband, that he too would experience this perfect love. I wept for his soul, that he would be caught up in what God has ready for him. I know the plans for my husband are great, that his calling on this earth is amazing. But if we do not walk in who God has created us to be, it is very hard to live that out. I believe that you can not love another until you first love yourself. I recently began loving myself as God sees me. I do not know how I came to do that, but instead of focusing on my weight, appearance, or what others said about who I was my perspective shifted. It made a 180. I saw myself as courageous, exuberant, strong, and all around amazing. I have God's DNA intertwined with mine, that means that I reflect the Father when I walk in His covering. I made that conscious choice sixteen days ago, that I was no longer satisfied with a mediocre life. I want more, I crave more from this life and I will stop at nothing till it is mine.
I started writing this blog shortly after being married, and I write words that wage war on the devil. I have been attacked ever since. I believe that my words will resonate with people, and they will begin to seek out the truth. I believe that my words are making a difference, because not only am I speaking them, practicing them, but writing them. They are forever manifested on this earth, and I am winning this war with Satan. I will not fall out of the grace and favor God has me under. I love favor even it's definition is beautiful, it is bestowing on someone kindness above and beyond what is due to that person. If you choose to operate out of a mindset of favor from God, you will notice changes around you immediately. You have the power to shift the hearts around you and change their perspectives by the light you bring into that room or house.
I want to end on this verse, Romans 8:35-39 "Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? As it is written, “For your sake we are being killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.” No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord." Go in peace, and knowing that you will never be without His unstoppable love.
