What a day it will be when I can run into the arms of my Savior!

Isn't it funny how some people can get so caught up in the world..I won't lie it happens to me too, but if you think about it, it's pretty ridiculous. What does the world really have to offer us, a few dollars? which we all know will just cause stress whether we have any or not. All these..objects. Given to us by God, but idolized too far to the point of destruction. Tearing people apart limb by limb, little by little, until they feel they have nothing left to give. All they have left to do is give up and call it quits. It breaks my heart to think of these people and for them to not know what they're missing! A crazy, everlasting, heart-pounding love. A love you can't find in those "Special Friends", husbands, wives, even your family. A love filled with forgiveness, no matter how badly you screwed up this time. The Love I'm talking about only comes from the true Lover. He wants this intimate relationship with you, but because we can't physically see God as we see people, it is so much easier to give that love to something/someone else. And you may be going "yeah, yeah I've heard this whole thing before. I tried talking to God, but got nothing back.."
And I could keep trying to convince you that the whole time you were talking, God was answering, but you just weren't listening. He was just doing it in ways you weren't expecting. And man, I've had such a hard time with this myself! You can't imagine how long it's taken me to hear God's voice. I still have trouble with it sometimes, and I'm certainly not saying I'll never have a hard time again, but God is showing me all His unbelievable voices, I just have to be open to listening.
I can try drilling all these things into your head, but until you truly experience it for yourself all I can give you are words. But this Love is, outstanding. To say the least. It makes you want to jump up and run to all the people you love, squeeze them in a giant bear hug, and kiss them on the cheek telling them you love them, because Christ loves you throughout eternity. While at the same time you want to hide in a corner and cry the happiest tears that have ever flown from your eyes. The Love my Lover has shown me makes it hard to wait until the moment run to Him in all His glory. Waiting for the moment I can feel the perfect hug..
