eveninthe d e p t h s

listening to Chris Tomlin's "live from austin music hall" the song Indescribable touched me. it is one of those that i'm sure i have heard 34590839452120 times. but god is so good and opened my eyes to something through one phrase...

''you see the depths of my heart and you love me the same.''


our hearts are composed of different parts, different emotions and jesus sees those and the deepest parts. the parts we want NO one else to see. the insecurities, the silent fears.. the jealousy, the lonliness that each of us, everyday, try to cover up with a smile.

jesus knows it. he accepts me even in my weakest moments. he knows me more than i could ever imagine knowing myself or anyone else!

so what is the same?
- when god sent his son, jesus, as the ultimate sacrifice, the greatest love man could ever know was shown..

that love lives in me. lives in you. lives in people around the world, even people who are 'undiscovered' by 'humans'.

that love still exists, never dies and continues throughout all ages regardless of our heart's condition. jesus loves those who don't even care about him or the things that His love has so graciously given us. he sees their depths, my depths, and still loves us the SAME.

I praise God for loving me. No bars held. Wide open, God's love is REAL. IT REMAINS STEADFAST. It is SO well with my soul. Thank you Jesus for accepting me, even when I am in the depths of myself. You see me- you pick me up and you love me just the same.
