"I Know That You Are For Me"

As I listen to Kari Jobe's "I Know That You Are For Me", I think of all of the times that I have refused Your love, God, and I remember all of the times that I have felt like I let You down. Still, somehow, no matter how many times I turn away, no matter what wrongs I have made, You never leave my side. You have always been there, and are always here; it is just up to me to trust You with all of me.


There have been plenty of times in my life when I trusted, or felt like I needed someone to prove that love is true, and real. When really, all I needed/need to do, is turn to God. His love is the only everlasting love. The only unconditional love. The only love that will always stay true, no matter what storms may threaten to break you down. 


God, I realize, and know that You found me. You picked me up and carried me under Your loving wings throughout all of my life; through all of the storms, and rainy days. Father, I know that every night that I cried myself to sleep, I was crying on Your shoulders. You have always, always been there for me, and for me to even think about turning away from your amazing, everlasting, and true love, for a love so conditional, so unreal, and so untrue is such sin in itself. Though I cannot promise You, God, that this will never happen again, for I know that there will be many times in all my years to come that I will turn away from Your love, I can and must, do all that I can to stay faithful to You. You, God, are absolutely everything to me.

"I know that You are for me
I know that You are for me
I know that You will never forsake me in my weakness
I know that You have come down
Even if to ride upon my heart
To remind me who You are"
