even still
Why would I get “even still” tattooed on my right forearm? It will be there till the day I die. I’ll have it at my wedding. My highest, greatest moments in my future. The absolute hardest, ugliest, and worst moments in my future. And in every present moment I walk through it will be there. Why? Because… even still, His love remains. He pursues me no matter what, who, or why. No matter what I face or where I am, even still His love goes on and on and it will never stop.
Every time I think of my past and every mistake I’ve made. Every person I’ve hurt and every person who has hurt me. Every deep dark hole I’ve lived in or walked through, even still His love was there even when I didn’t know how much He loved me. When I thought I was alone, His love was there. He’s always there and I want to communicate that with everyone I come in contact with.
When someone aims to tear me down, even still He forgives me, so I will forgive. When someone hates or curses, even still He loves, so I will love. When it’s hard and I’m tired. When they don’t deserve it. I don’t deserve it, but even still He freely gives to me, so I will give. I will pour out because He is my source, my roots. I deserve Hell and death BUT even still He came and He died in my place. So I will walk out everyday of the rest of my life carrying these two words on my arm.
