I am.......He is.....

"Higher than than the mountains that I face...
Stronger than the power of the grave....
Constant in the trial and the pain....
                                                                This  one thing remains:
 
Your love never fails, it never gives up, it never runs out on me..Your love never fails, it never gives up, it never runs out one me, Your love..."


Through my every day, my every hour, my every second--Christ's love remains constant. If that is true, then why do I allow myself to become depressed and overwhelmed about all the cruelties of life? Why do I see my heart's desires and my spirit's dreams as an unattainable reality? Why can crushing depression seep deep into my heart until I've forgotten why I'm fighting in the first place?
  If God's love for me is truly unconditional, constant, and forever pursuing, why is it something I feel I have to earn to attain?
  I am nothing. Yet Jesus died to make me something. My heart is ugly. Jesus died because He saw something beautiful. I am weak. The Lion of Judah became a lamb to make me strong. I am empty. He came to make me full. I am broken. He was broken so I could be whole. I was rejected. I am my Beloved's and my Beloved is mine. I was jealous of others. He is jealous for ME.
 I am a failure. He is my victory. I am corrupt. He sees me as pure. I am  never enough.
"My grace is sufficient for you, My strength is make PERFECT in weakness." I am dead inside.
"I have come that they may have life, and have to the full!" I can do nothing. "With God, all things are possible."  I am..............
                                                              I AM.
"I am confident in this very thing, that He who began a good work in you, will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus."
Philipians 1:6
