"I have found.....that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love." Mother Teresa
Love.....I never knew what it was....not until He touched me. And even then....I resisted...and fought....doing everything to push Him away. But He wouldn't go. He wouldn't leave. He stayed. He waited....until I was ready...to calm down....to trust that He would never leave....to always be in my corner....in the good times....and bad. It's strange about love....it hurts at first when you're not used to it. It hurts so much...that even though you hunger for it....you're afraid to feel its pain...
His love is something I had never experienced. It changed me. It changed the way I looked at the world....and even the way I looked at myself. His love is real. One hundred percent real. I'm proof.....and because He hung in with me.....never giving up.....never letting go....I want to be like Him....I want to walk in that kind of love too.
I say love is a flower....and you its only seed....

Hi Sarah, Such a pretty song. I hope you have a blessed Sunday and that the week ahead is full of blessings.
Nothing is ever the same again once you've experienced His love. I'm thankful that you have found that love in your life, Sarah! Thanks for sharing the beautiful song and the beautiful quote from Mother Theresa. Wishing you much love and many blessings!
Beautiful. Those lyrics are amazing. Westlife, I love! You, reminding me of God, each day, a blessing!
Happy weekend, Sarah!
What a wonderfully-appropriate video! 'Have to confess that I never fully immersed myself in the lyrics before today. My world's a better place tonight for having done so - thank you!
Beautiful song and post! God's love changes and rearranges us! Have a great week, Sarah.:)
This song goes perfect with your powerful post, Sarah! I love your heart.
There is nothing like God's love ~ our world changes forever when we experience it! Thanks for this post and reminder. And thanks for coming by my blog and leaving such encourging posts..
I tried to link on at SS but was told there was no such blog? Not sure if it was just me....but thought I would let you know.
God bless.

I agree with Renee... I could not get this week's SS link to work. You may want to repost. I found you via last week's. I wouldn't miss your Spiritual Sunday post for anything!
Blessings, dear one.
His love...Soooo unfathomable...Blessings to you sister and take good care of yourself, too! Have a great rest of the week!
I'm glad He is willing to wait on us. Sometimes it hard to even trust God.
I deleted two links. The one left seems to work OK. I absolutely love this song. My daughter listened to it over and over and over again when she was a teenager back in the 80s. I learned to love it then, and it brings back wonderful memories now. I love how He never gave up on you and you learned to love as he loved you. I love how you're sharing it with us now.
Blessings,
Charlotte
Hi again, Sarah. I just spotted the other one that doesn't work and deleted it too. Sorry you had so much trouble linking.

Lovely song , just needed to hear it as I 've been feeling rathe rlonely and sad since last night.
Gotta remember I am a seed
Lovely song, Happy Lovely Sunday!
Sarah, have you read "Hound of Heaven?" It reminds me a lot of you. I think you would relate to it if you have not read it.
Wonderful quote from Mother Teresa. Great words from you and I love the video of The Rose. Thanks for posting. Have a great weekend.
Enjoyed your post.

I love your Mother Teresa quote. I needed to hear that today. Thank you.
God's love can heal all that seemed impossible to heal, ...

What lovely praise and worship music and such a powerful testimony of His love for us and how He wants us to love others. It's not easy, but so worth it! Thank you for a lovely visit :)
Amen! 100% real...nothing fake or artificial about the love of God!
I love the song. Also the quote of Mother Theresa.
Most of all I love our Bible who over and over again confirms "God is love."
Sarah, a beautiful song and what you wrote from Mother Theresa. I know you quote her a lot. Blessings to you dear one, JBR.
Beautiful thoughts on love. Thanks for sharing.
I'm so glad you found LOVE through Jesus Christ...it's sort of hard to grasp the depth of a love like that. "Amazing love, how can it be, that you my King should die for me!"
That's beautiful.
His Love is the only perfect Love. And through Him we can share that love with others.
Blessings,
Lyn
Very beautiful sis, love you.
Yes, his Love is wonderful , Praise Him !
Blessings,
~Myrna
