Is the most compassionate man that I know

no matter my circumstance, He is greater

He is truly amazing
Loved me first

fills up my heart with more joy than I could ever imagine

brings comfort to me through everything

is my shoulder to cry on and wipes my tears away

He does not give to me as the world gives

He is patient

He loves the sensitive woman that I am

He laughs at my jokes and laughs with me 

knows me inside and out

loves me for me 

His timing is perfect

holds my hand and leads me down the right path

There is no sin that He won’t forgive

Died on a cross for me when I didn’t deserve it

has more mercy in Him than I have sin in me

is beautiful and perfect

tender and mighty and holy

makes me tremble at the sight of his works

cares about the little things and big things that concern me

will never ever stop pursuing me

knows exactly what I need 

always will provide

keeps his promises

answers my prayers

knitted me together in the womb

knows every single hair on my head

is the only man that will ever fill the void in my heart

created me for His glory and to love him

hears and wants to give me my hearts desires

ways and thoughts are higher than mine and is feared by me

has an understanding that is everlasting

loves me unconditionally 

blesses me when I don’t deserve it 

brings hope to me when there seems like no way out

will never leave me nor forsake me

brought me on this journey not because he needed me, but so that my heart could be transformed 

One day will come back and take me with Him to spend all eternity 

Is my best advocate

is fighting for my heart

Brings tears to my eyes at the thought of Him

consumes every ounce of me

steals my heart and takes my breathe away

Is the ultimate healer

No man exists that is kinder than Him

brings light to the dark places

is all knowing, all powerful

 

      This man of my dreams is Jesus. I just finished the book Hosea and my eyes have been opened to God’s heart in a way I never saw  or understood before. I just couldn’t believe that after all Israel had done and how many times they turned away from God, He was still so merciful and changed his mind! He was going to bring his wrath upon them but he changed His mind! It is just so crazy to me that the one living God who is all powerful, all knowing and who is perfect, changed His mind because he loves us that much. It is so easy to forget that he is always here, always pursuing our hearts. Has loved me and pursued me during all those times I insisted on going my own way. He fought for me and never let go of my hand. He brought me back home, and I can’t thank Him enough. There is no greater love than Christ’s love for us and it is unfailing. So many times in my life I have tried to fill up that spot in my heart that is meant for God, with other things. Yes, God wants to give us the desires of our hearts, but He doesn’t desire for anyone to come before Him or to take His place. He wants to always be our first love and the one to bring us true fulfillment. It easy to put our own agenda or desires above God because at the time we think they will bring us happiness. Everything on this earth can only bring us temporary happiness. It may feel good for awhile, but then that happiness and pleasure fades away. I can speak honestly from my heart that this is True. God is the only one who can bring our hearts the fulfillment that it needs. He created that spot in our hearts that longs for Him and that is made to only be filled up by Him.  Satan loves it when we feel empty inside and look to all that he has to offer in this world, because he is out to kill and destroy us. We must be aware that our hearts can be very easily swayed and that a way that seems so right to us, could not be God’s way. So we must lean on Him and trust in Him in all that we do. When we are looking to God, satan has no room to sweep in, because we stand firm wearing the armor of God and have been equipped by God to fight any battle that comes our way! WE must fight the good fight of faith and say No to these stupid lies and say yes to what God has for us!
