What love really means

What Love Really Mean-JJ Heller
He cries in the corner where nobody sees
He’s the kid with the story no one would believe
He prays every night “Dear God won’t you please
could you send someone here who will love me?”
Who will love me for me
Not for what I have done or what I will become
Who will love me for me
‘Cause nobody has shown me what love
What love really means what love really means
Her office is shrinking a little each day
She’s the woman whose husband has run away
She’ll go to the gym after working today
Maybe if she was thinner then he would’ve stayed
And she says…
Who will love me for me?
Not for what I have done or what I will become
Who will love me for me?
‘Cause nobody has shown me what love
What love really means what love really means
He’s waiting to die as he sits all alone
He’s a man in a cell who regrets what he’s done
He utters a cry from the depths of his soul
“Oh Lord, forgive me. I want to go home”
Then he heard a voice somewhere deep inside
And it said “I know you’ve murdered and I know you’ve lied
And I have watched you suffer all of your life
And now that you’ll listen I’ll tell you that I...”
I will love you for you
Not for what you have done or what you will become
I WILL LOVE YOU FOR YOU
I WILL GIVE YOU THE LOVE, THE LOVE THAT YOU NEVER KNEW
I WILL LOVE YOU FOR YOU
NOT FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DONE OR WHAT YOU WILL BECOME
I WILL LOVE YOU FOR YOU
I WILL GIVE YOU THE LOVE, THE LOVE THAT YOU NEVER KNEW

She's the girl, who tried so hard for so long to be perfect and never let anyone down. She prayed every night for God to bring her the love of her life and reveal to her His perfect plan for her life. She's waiting on God to show her His plans for her life but what she's realizing is that she cannot wait, her life is going on now and she can't just wait for God to reveal His plans for her future just yet, because she has a job she is suppose to be doing right now. Yes, she does need to prepare for her future and wait on God to reveal His plans for her future but she cant just wait around for that and in the mean time do nothing. God's plan is unfolding right in front of her right now, she just has to realized that God's plan for her life does not being when she graduates from school, her life is now and she doesn't have to wait to do big things with her life she is doing big things now! The people around her need ministering to, the children she leads need help beginning their faith and all around God has filled her life with people who need Jesus and He placed her in their lives for just that, to help show each one of these people where their real hope can be found ,in Christ!

Furthermore, what she realized further was that the love of her life was with her all along! He has been there every second of everyday! He has not missed one event in her life and never will. And He love Her for Her and not what she has done or what she will become. He loved her before she even entered this world! He loved her at her worst and at her best, He has been there through the tears and laughter. He loved her when she wanted nothing to do with Him and in the moments when she couldn't get enough. Now that is true love!

I now realize I can pray for God to bring me my true love and love of my life every single day, but in reality this has already been answered. He IS my true love! He IS the love of my life! and even if He never brings me a husband, I will be okay. I know that no man on earth can fulfill me life Christ does. And everything I can dream up in my perfect man can be found in Christ, cause He is enough for me and if I search in other place it is just like me telling Christ He is not enough and I have to search in other places to find love, when Christ is the only one who can and will completely me. People on earth will let me down and break my heart, but not Christ cause He is the only one who can offer me the perfect love I am searching for.

So this Valentine's Day I am choosing to look at it differently. I don't need a card, box of chocolate and roses to complete me(although I do love them all!)and make me happy. I am not going to sit around and wallow about not having someone to spend it with. I have a true love who can satisfy my every need and desire!And I am trusting that God will bring me someone to share my life with in His timing, but also if He chooses not to I know I can be complete because I have God as my focus!and His love is enough for me! This verse will be my focus this Valenntine's Day:

Psalms 16:5-8,11
"Lord you have assigned me my portion and my cup; you have made my lot secure. The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;SURELY I HAVE A BEAUTIFUL INHERITANCE.I will praise the Lord who counsels me;even at night my heart instructs me. I have set the Lord ALWAYS BEFORE ME.Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken...You have made known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence,with eternal pleasures at your right hand."
