I am Yours

I am Yours!

Wow! What powerful words I have spoken! And yet never could I fully realize how bold they are! I am Yours! Words of comfort to me! Joy! Unending love!

I am Yours! Hold me, Lord! I am your child, the daughter of a King, whose love is beyond measure! You are my father! I trust you! You have taught be so much! I am Yours! Thanks for being their to catch me, because You love me that much, because I am Yours!

I am Yours! What a challenge! So much trust! Do with me as your will, Lord! My life is in Your hands! I trust you with my EVERYTHING, my life, my desires, my future....! Just as Mary said, "do with me as your will! I am Your servant!" So I say, I am Yours!

I am Yours! I am not my own! I am nothing without You! You are my everything! Together we are love! Your are my God! I am Yours! Who am I to have control! You are so big! I am so little!

I am Yours! Only Yours, Lord! Words of love! Passion! A promise! What an intimate moment of worship! I've never fully realized the power of these three little words! I imagine that moment when I could give my self to the man I have committed my whole heart, my whole life to. And I would say, "I am yours, I am no one else's, but yours. I want no one else! You have captured my whole heart. You are wonderful! I love you! I am yours!" But before this man, I have fallen head over heals for my Savior. He is the lover of my soul! I am Yours, Lord! You have captured my whole heart! What an awesome God! You are so good!

And truly, Lord, may it be so, I am Yours!

such a beautiful thing to be able to write such an intimate passionate love letter to jesus...realizing we [the church] are his bride, and he the bridegroom.


sometimes i think i'd be like peter, and say," no lord, you will NEVER wash my feet,"

but as the bridegroom and father, he has set the example ofserving over being served...and loving unconditionally as we are loved unconditionally by him.

...and you have expressed that amazingly


may our lord jesus bless you immensely for sharing so much love.
