"What do I know of you
Who spoke me into motion?
Where have I even stood
But the shore along your ocean?
Are you fire are you fury,
Are you sacred, are you beautiful?
So what do I know—
What do I know of holy?" --Addison Road, "What Do I Know of Holy?"
Father, Father, Father. I am in love with You. Desperately, uncontrollably, and joyfully in love with You. You fill me. You make me. You are everything, God... Everything. The only important thing in life, the only thing that really matters, is You. You are so BIG, God, and vast! So mighty and incredible! Who am I, who am I, to praise you, to pray to you, to know you? Lord! You are so good. I can't even describe with human words your goodness, Father. I love you. I love you, I love you, I love you!
Tonight, I reaped the consequences of what I sowed and I am so glad. Tonight, I was six minutes late. For the next six times I go out, my curfew is 10:00. But I am glad. Because the six minutes of prayer that made me miss curfew by six minutes was so pure, and so good, and so heartfelt, that I could not wish it any other way. I am joyful that it was so! I would not trade those six minutes of prayer to make curfew for anything in the world. Father, I cannot contain this love for you that is bubbling inside me right now. I stand in AWE of you, Lord, incredulous awe, because I cannot fathom you or your goodness. I. Love. You.
And Father! The way you revealed yourself as we prayed, as a group and as a pair... God! You are themostamazingthingihaveeverseenoforheardofinmylife. The way you move, the way you work, the way the Holy Spirit is poured out, is unbelievable! So much, God, you bless us so much. How undeserving we are! I trust you. I trust you with everything I have and everything I am, my very life I would cast aside to love you and be close to you, following your will. Wow.
Lord. Keep this love and build it. Between me and You. Between me and my family. Between me and my friends. Between me and my church. Between me and Luke. Build it, grow it, shape it, mold it, keep it pure, keep it fresh, keep it active. Keep it sincere.
Praise and Glory to you, Jesus.
