I found this quote this morning and thought it worthy of sharing. Felt like it is such a picture of the way I am experiencing God these days:
Intimacy with the Creator grows through sharing every realm of experience. I’ve wept bitterly with Him. I’ve screamed in frustration. Sometimes I thought He was going to break my heart in two. But I’ve also laughed out loud with Him. Wept with unspeakable joy. Left the chair and gone to my knees in awe. Squealed with excitement. I have been to every extremity and back with God. But I would tell you that He is the absolute joy of my life. I don’t just love Him. I love loving Him. Surrendering my heart to Him has not been a sacrifice.

Jen, I love, love, love this. I am praying for you. Wish I could be with you.
Very beautiful comment, especially “I love loving Him”. There’s nobody better to love than Jesus!! He created us, died for us, understands us, cherishes us, turns our sorrow into dancing and brings beauty out of ashes! Who wouldn’t love that? I want everyone to know Him and how wonderful He is! Many prayers and much love!!
