Your Face

 I love seeing your face O LORD.

When we talk; when I babble on and on, and you break in and smile at me;

I love that.

I love how you reassure me it's you, who I see, who I hear, who I sense so close to me;

By the way you show up when I open your Word and speak the very same thing you spoke to me earlier.

 I love that you love me.

Oh how I love that you love me.

I will do anything for you, because I love you; because you love me so much.

Even though I know there are more words than I can count; there are still not enough words to adequately describe how wonderful you have been to me and how incredible you are.

I feel sometimes like I shouldn't even bother writing my feelings down as the end result would not even come close to being able to describe my love and affection towards you. 

Then I realize - then I remember - you are God, you know all things. 

You know my inner most thoughts. Even those I have a hard time finding words for. Those I can't even come close to expressing. So if I just give my best shot, then at least you can put the finishing touches on it.

And - then it will be beautiful and perfect.

Just like you. 

"He has made everything beautiful in it's time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to the end." 

Ecclesiastes 3:11
