Perfect Love



"Perfect love casts out fear." 1 John 4:18

How wonderful, that God's love is perfect--and in His love, there is no fear. We don't have to worry. We can just rest.

Isn't that beautiful? I've been thinking lately about love. Who hasn't? And I've had a mix of feelings.

But I will tell you the absolute truth. I know that I have the best love in the world. His name is Jesus. I don't have to worry that He will be fickle. I don't have concerns about His faithfulness. I don't ever feel the need to try and win His affections.

He loves me. That's simply it. The simple truth.

And isn't that a beautiful love to abide in?

Captivate Us ~ by Watermark

Your face is beautiful
And Your eyes are like the stars
Your gentle hands have healing
There, inside the scars
Your loving arms, they draw me near
And Your smile, it brings me peace
Draw me closer, oh, my Lord
Draw me closer, Lord, to Thee
Captivate us, Lord Jesus
And set our eyes on You
Devastate us with Your presence
Falling down
And rushing river, draw us nearer
And holy fountain consume us with You
And captivate us, Lord Jesus, with You
Your voice is powerful
And Your words are radiant bright
And in Your breath and shadow
I will come close and abide
You whisper love and life divine
And Your fellowship is free
Draw me closer, oh, my Lord
Draw me closer, Lord, to Thee
Captivate us, Lord Jesus
And set our eyes on You
Devastate us with Your presence
Falling down
And rushing river, draw us nearer
And holy fountain consume us with You
And captivate us, Lord Jesus, with You
And let everything be lost in the shadows
Of the light of Your face
Let every chain be broken from me
As I'm bound in Your grace
For Your yoke is easy, Your burden is light
You're full of wisdom, power and might
And every eye will see You
Captivate us, Lord Jesus
And set our eyes on You
Devastate us with Your presence
Falling down
And rushing river, draw us nearer
And holy fountain consume us with You
Captivate us, Lord Jesus, with You
And captivate us, Lord Jesus, with You
Captivate us with You
