Perfect Love

Like a bundle of flowers, Your love is hard to receive.

How difficult is it for us to receive the truth that we are delighted in?

Through my stubbornness?

My brokenness?

My confusion?

My unworthiness?

My inability to come to You when things get rough?

Yet He still shows up every. single. time.

As if it isn’t challenging enough to claim the title of “daughter” or “son”.

What if in addition to those things, by means of your baptism, you are being called to go deeper.

You are delighted in.

You are His first love.

All He sees is you.

He shows up at the front door of your heart, just hoping you will let Him in.

Seems too good to be true?

How could He call me the Beloved? He must not know all the things I’ve done.

Well, Beloved,

This might be news :

He is Creator. His omniscience has remained.

He loves you.

Open that door and get ready to receive perfect love.
