Love Through Faith

Love through Faith
'The only thing that counts is faith, expressing itself through Love. (Galatians 5:6)

You my Lord you have faith in me and you truly love me.
You knew me before I knew me and love me even then.
You knew me within my mother's womb and loved me then.
Lord because you first loved me I can now live.
Lord because you first loved me I can now love.
Because you choose to die on the cross for me I can now have new life.
Because you Saved me I can now be free without any technicalities.
I have been made a brand new creature in you.
Now because you showed me the way I now also have faith in you.
I have faith that wants to know you better.
Faith that knows you love me.
Faith that you Lord will finish the work you started in me.
A Faith that's ever-growing, learning, and desiring to love you back.
It's not blind faith it's a faith based on the truth of your Word.
It's a faith based on my experiences with you.
Even when that faith really waivers I know you will be there.
For your faith and love never waivers like mines it's totally complete.
One day I too will be totally complete lacking nothing/whole.
That is when I will have stepped over into eternity and dropped off this mortal shell.
Knowing fully as I am known fully and seeing My SAVIOR, MY DEAR LORD FACE TO FACE!
