A woman who fears the LORD will not run away from God to satisfy her longings and relieve her anxieties. She will wait for the LORD. She will hope in God. She will stay close to the heart of God and trust in His promises. The prospect of departing into the way of sin will be too fearful to pursue; and the benefits of abiding in the shadow of the almighty too glorious to forsake. - John Piper.
It’s not a silly little moment, It’s not the storm before the calm. This is the deep and dying breath of This love that we’ve been working on. Can’t seem to hold you like I want to So I can feel you in my arms. Nobody’s gonna come and save you, We pulled too many false alarms.

There is no blame on your shoulders, not even when you endlessly try to put it there. There is no misery that is intended to cripple you.

All of Me
Afraid to love something that could break? Could I move on if you were torn away? And I’m so close to what I can’t control; I can’t give you half my heart and pray He makes you whole You’re gonna have all of me ‘cause You’re worth every falling tear, You’re worth facing any fear. You’re gonna know all my love even if it’s not enough, enough to...
