Give Love a Chance...

I am reflecting on things that have been happening in my life lately, things that are amazing, and things that were not seemingly amazing at the time. However, I am starting to understand some of God's purpose, as if I am reaching the light at the end of a long and very dark tunnel. He has brought me through so much in the past few years, and has taught me some very valuable lessons, one of which is how to trust Him no matter what. He remained with me when I thought I didn't deserve His love.

This song is incredible-It's by Barlowgirl, and as I was listening to it tonight, the lyrics just became that much more meaningful.


Need You To Love Me

Why? Why are you still here with me?
Didn’t you see what I’ve done?
In my shame I want to run,
And hide myself.
Yeah, but it’s here I see the truth,
I don’t deserve you.

But I need you to love me,
And I, I won’t keep my heart from you this time.
And I’ll stop this pretending that I can,
Somehow deserve what I already have
I need you to love me

I, I have wasted so much time
Pushing you away from me.
I just never saw how you
Could cherish me.

Cause you’re a God who has all things,
And still you want me.

And I need you to love me,
And I, I won’t keep my heart from you this time.
And I’ll stop this pretending that I can,
Somehow deserve what I already have
Yeah, ye-ea-eah

Your love makes me forget what I have been.
Your love makes me see who I really am.
Your love makes me forget what I have been, oh-oh.

And I need you to love me, yeah
I need you to love me, ye-ea-eah!
And I’ll stop this pretending that I can,
Somehow deserve what I already have
Somehow deserve what I already have
I need you to love me, yeah
I need you to…
oh oh oh oh eo (x4)
Love me, love me, yah

Hi Ash
I am slow in posting a response to your note but here I am at last.

There is much to think about in your words and also those of the song.

Indeed as you reflect on the happenings in your life especially these recent weeks, you cannot help but know that you are God's child!

He has been with you even before you were born and has kept you safe from harm many times.

He does have a special purpose in mind for you and it seems like you are open to His workings in you and only time will tell the directions He has in mind for your future.

Our prayers are always with you and may you continue to trust in Him and learn from the lesson He has already taught you .

I am sure the best is yet to come!

King James Bible
Proverbs 3:5,6
Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

Lots of love NAN xoxox
