Litany of Love
Jesus,
I love you because…
I tried my way and it led me to utter brokenness
You loved me first and it conquered my heart
Your presence is sweet, cold water, and i’m dying of thirst
You never gave up on me
You never stopped loving me
You were the only one there in my darkest moments, even when i didn’t know it was you
When I look back on my life I can see the fiery path of love you burned right down the middle of it
You’ve seen every side of me, all of my brokenness, but when I look in your eyes I see no condemnation, only fierce love.
You are truly humble, and it melts my pride
You are truly wise, and it exposes my foolishness
You are truly kind, and it shatters all my walls
You wait patiently for me to turn to you
I deserve your wrath, but you offer me instead your most intimate friendship
You will never lie to me
You gave up literally everything for me
You are what I’ve been waiting for
You satisfy my heart
Your words illuminate my whole life with meaning
You met me right where I was
You answer all my questions
