All my heart

 "Love Me with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength."

Mark 12:30

The other night God lead me into a time of worship with Him. It was late and I went into our office at home and shut the door,

"Should I turn on worship music?"

"No," He said, "Just sing from your heart."

And as i knelt down in the dark, my chin tucked into my chest, a crackly soft voice came from my mouth. and I wouldn't have called it singing, but I tried. And as I continued whispering words- wanting to make them rhyme with no accuracy- I began to see my life in different stages: big smiling little girl, seeking teenager, desperate twenty-something and then

He said, "I've always wanted you to love me from your heart. I never wanted to make you make you love Me, but I was always pursuing you. I love this. I love you."

Lord, I love you too...

this dark office, crackly singing, life stages, and Your words

I love You....
