Over the last few days I've been praying that God would overwhelm me with His love. I sat the other morning singing those words over and over.
Lord, overwhelm me. Overwhelm me with your love.
I knew that my flesh was wanting to be content with living in an emotional storm. I was fighting the urge. Fighting to not give in. Confessing to all of you that I just really wanted to but knew I needed to get. it. together. girl.
I was pressing in. Seeking Him. Asking Him. Worshipping Him.
And as I let that request fill my heart and mind through out my days, you want to know what happened?
He overwhelmed me with His love.
Surprised?
I'm not. :)
He's always been faithful to pour out and consume me when I seek Him. When I surrender.
One of the ways I so sweetly experienced His love was through all of you-thank you for being you. Thank you for still being here with me and always encouraging my heart. I needed it. All the different ways too-the comments here, the prayers, the texts and emails...I didn't skim over any of it.
Thank you friends.
You are welcome Dear Heart, you are welcome. It is good to have you to be there for. I love you and am honored to be apart of your journey. Oh, and that request, I think Father puts it our hearts because it's one He delights to answer.
