Furious Love



And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.-Ephesians 3:18-19


FURIOUS LOVE

Following Christ has nothing to do with success as the world sees success. It has to do withlove."

Madeleine L’Engle


"God is love. He didn’t need us. But he wanted us. And that is the most amazing thing."

Rick Warren


"Love is an act of endless forgiveness."

Jean Vanier


Though our feelings come and go, God’s love for us does not.

C.S. Lewis


God loves us just the way we are, but loves us too much to leave us that way

Leighton Ford


And he is jealous for me, loves like a hurricane, I am tree. oh how He loves



To say that I am made in the image of God is to say that love is the reason for my existence, for God is love.

- Thomas A Kempis

To fall in love with God is the greatest of all romances; To seek him, the greatest adventure; To find him, the greatest human achievement.

- Raphael Simon

His love is so intimate, satisfying, and unconditional. Our human minds will never comprehend this type of love. We have never known unconditional love on this earth. But through his Son, his love is now shown to all the world.
-Unknown


Nothing can tear us from

The grip of His mighty love

We’ve only glimpsed, His vast affection

Heard whispers of, His heart and passion

It’s pouring down…



His love is deep, His love is wide

And it covers us

His love is fierce, His love is strong

It's furious

His love is sweet, His love is wild

And it's waking hearts to life


The Father loves and sends His son

The Son lays down His life for all

He lavishes His love upon us

He calls us now, His sons and daughters

He’s reaching out…


… and its waking hearts to life

He is waking hearts to life

He is waking hearts to life


Your love is deep, Your love is wide

And it covers us

Your love is fierce, Your love is strong

It's furious

Your love is sweet, Your love is wild

And it's waking hearts to life

Blessings upon us

Praising the Lord today for his goodness. These past three days have been a refreshing wind to my soul. The weather has been absolutely gorgeous and a little taste of fall. Fall is my favorite time of the year and its almost here! I cannot wait for cozy sweaters, hot chocolate, pumpkins, candy corn, and beautiful fall leaves. But most of all I am thankful for the Lord's sweetness and beauty throughout my favorite things. These past few weeks have been hectic with getting into the swings of things but He never changes. He is always steady. I am so grateful to be back at Ole Miss with all my friends and I get to walk around the most beautiful campus named by Newsweek! As i was walking on campus the other day, it hit me that I literally live in a dream world. Most beautiful campus, most beautiful students, great friends, and a family who loves me. I do have my stressful moments and worries here and there but honestly the Lord has blessed me beyond measure than what I ever deserve. Most of all I am his, a chosen child of the Lord Almighty. This bring such joy to my heart and brings me to my knees when I really think of his kindness and love. I get so caught up in the things he blesses us with instead of focusing on His love. So as my favorite time approaches I will praise him for the good and the bad. Each cool breeze, sunny day, or time with friends is a sweet sweet gift from him. Thank you Lord for who you are and all your many blessings!

Things I am looking forward to...
