The Father's Love For Me is Deeper Than "The Notebook".

Warning: It is not good to drown oneself in chick-flicks and romantic anythings. One will, as was worded, truly begin to drown.

At least I do! I love them. I really, can't get enough. Even if they make me jealous and sick to my stomach for yearning... well, I think that's what I like the most! However, I must check myself... because if I'm not careful, I could be overwhelmed with a desire for love, and possibly forget that I am loved. As I was beginning to drown in The Notebook (yeah, I know... it's on TV, don't judge me), this song popped into my head- thank you, God, for the reminder of just how deeply I am loved.

"How deep the Father's love for us, how vast beyond all measure... that He should give His only son, to make a wretch His treasure.
How great the pain of searing loss, the Father turns his face away as wounds which marred the chosen one bring many sons to glory.
Behold the man upon the cross. My sin upon his shoulders. Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice cry out among the scoffers.
It was my sin that held him there until it was accomplished. His dying breath has brought me life. I know that it is finished."
"How Deep The Father's Love For Us" - Stuart Townend.
