acceptance

its a brand new day again

yesterday i gained yetanother glimpse into the heart of Jesus. the heart beating with love for me. i don't think i can ever aptly describe it in words but i'm amazed at His gift of forgiveness anew and i marvel at His grace all over again.

love is so irrational. i must have had a 1000 or more 'second chances' and He knew that with each 2nd chance, He is taking a calculated risk but He gives me the freedom, the acceptance come what may. because He loves me too much. love always empowers and gives you room to fail, because acceptance is in overabundance.

its truly beautiful to be accepted even when you are so not supposed to be, by man's standards anyway. its so marvellous that a perfect God made the perfect sacrifice so you never have to experience rejection from Him. acceptance gives you the freedom and chance to be yourself and realise who you are, that inspite of who you are and what you do, the love remains because you are you and there is just no duplicate in the world, not for now, not for ever. you are truly special because of everything that you are and that alone is all the reason that is required for love to be extended.

its beautiful, its marvellous. it really is.

no one would love me if they knew all the things i hide
my words fall to the floor
as tears drip through the telephone line

and to the hands i've seen raised to the sky
not waving but drowning all this time
i'll try to build an ark that they need
to float to you upon the crystal sea

-love alone-
