Why I Love The Lord

Psalm 116: 1-2

I love the Lord because He hears my voice and my prayer for mercy. Because He bends down to listen, I will pray as long as I have breath!

O my Father, I do love You with all my heart. You loved me first, from before You even created this world, You chose me to be Your own. You sent Your own Son to satisfy all Your requirements for the atoning for my sins, and You have rescued me from a life of sin. 

You have done so much in and for me: forgiving me, cleansing me, giving me Your own new Life, powered by Your own Holy Spirit; and You have answered my prayers all these years since You redeemed me. You have allowed me to draw closer to You to get to know You better, and in knowing You better I love You all the more. And You have drawn closer to me, given me Your peace and Your wisdom. Thank You so much, Father, for being such a good Father and Daddy to me.

Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
