Ever Feel Unlovable?

Posted by prophetmother on May 21, 2010 · 1 Comment

He is jealous for me
Loves like a hurricane
I am a tree
Bending beneath the weight of his wind and mercy
When all of a sudden I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by Glory
And I realize just how beautiful you are and how great your affections are for me

Oh how he loves us, so
Oh How he loves us, how he loves us so

And oh, how he loves us so,
Oh how he loves us, how he loves us so

Yeah he loves us
Oh how he loves us
Oh how he loves us
Oh how he loves

We are his portion and he is our prize
Drawn to redemption by the grace in his eyes
If grace is an ocean we’re all sinking
So, heaven meets earth like an unforeseen kiss
And my heart turns violently inside of my chest
I don’t have time to maintain these regrets when I think about the way

He loves us
Oh how he loves us
Oh how he loves us
Oh how he loves

Yeah, he loves us
Oh how he loves us
Oh how he loves us
Oh how he loves

I know I feel unlovable and unloving at times. I have those days when I can’t do or say anything right. Days when nothing cheers me up and I don’t want it to. But then the Spirit puts this song in my heart and I can’t help being uplifted. Remember that Jesus came for the unlovable. The unwanted. The sinners, not the saints. Let Him remake you.

How do you cope whenever you feel unlovable? What lifts your spirits most?
