Abundant Affections


When He takes something away...
He's always so good to give something better in return.

And on the tough days when I'm not so easy to love...
He loves me even harder.

When nothing else soothes the pain...
His love is the balm my heart craves.

His abundant affections overflow.

He stands beside me and He's all around me. Check out Bethel's, Come to Me here.

Kisses from the King

On this week of Easter...

Reflecting on the ultimate gift of His love...

When the realization hits that the Lord is stripping you of everything. 

Everything but His affection.

How painfully beautiful.

And oh, how abundant his affections.

"I've heard the tender whisper of love in the dead of night. And you tell me that you're pleased and that I'm never alone... It's love so undeniable I, I can hardly speak; peace so unexplainable I, I can hardly think... as you call me deeper still, as you call me deeper still, as you call me deeper still- into love, love, love."

What a good, good Father he is. Check out the full lyrics of Good, Good Father here.

Just a bit of his affections poured out on me on my last beach trip:
