Love's Divine

This is probably the most personal post I've ever made, but I felt the need to express how I feel about the Lord's unconditional love for us. I was listening to "Love's Divine" by Seal while I was getting ready for work and it really touched me. It really hit home for me with everything that has been going on in my life the last couple of months and this month especially. I realized how blessed I have been even through the toughest of times. Work has been really tough and I haven't really had much of a personal life, but just when I think I just can't take anymore somehow everything always works out and I manage to overcome all of the obstacles. In a way I am grateful for everything that I've been going through because as faithful as I am I've done more praying and relying on the Lord than I normally do. The Lord allows us to go through certain trials in order for us to come closer to him, whether those trials are brought upon by our own stupid mistakes or just because life happens.  I know that there is no way that I would be able to accomplish anything that I've accomplished without the help of the Lord. I also feel so undeserving of the blessings that I've been given and the help that I have received. In the song he talks about losing your belief in the midst of trial but being comforted and saved by "Loves's Divine." This just got me thinking about the Lord's divine and unconditional love for us and how no matter what, he will be there to help and comfort us in our time of need. I was just so overcome with emotion listening to this especially the part where he says:

I need love, love's divine
Please forgive me now I see that I've been blind
Give me love, love is what I need to help me know my name

I realized how blessed I have been and in that moment I could feel his love for me so strongly and I just knew that everything was going to be okay, even though I felt like I had been doing everything wrong. The Lord knows us each individually, he knows the intent of our hearts, and he will never leave us alone. He loves us unconditionally.
