Is It LOVE…

For all you people who say “love you” when you have
no clue what love is exactly!!! something to ponder upon…

Are your palms sweaty, is your heart racing and is your voice caught within your chest??
It isn’t love, it’s like.

You can’t keep your eyes or hands off of them, am I right??
It isn’t love, it’s lust.

Are you proud, and eager to show them off??
It isn’t love, it’s luck.

Do you want them because you know they’re there??
It isn’t love, it’s loneliness.

Are you there because it’s what everyone wants??
It isn’t love, it’s loyalty.

Are you there because they kissed you, or held your hand??
It isn’t love, it’s low confidence.

Do you stay for their confessions of love, because you don’t want to hurt them??
It isn’t love, it’s pity.

Do you belong to them because their sight makes your heart skip a beat??
It isn’t love, its infatuation.

Do you pardon their faults because you care about them??
It isn’t love, it’s friendship.

Do you tell them everyday they are the only one you think of??
It isn’t love, it’s a lie.

Are you willing to give all of your favorite things for their sake??
It isn’t love, it’s charity.

Does your heart ache and break when they’re sad??
Then it’s love.

Do you cry for their pain, even when they’re strong??
Then it’s love.

Do their eyes see your true heart, and touch your soul so deeply it hurts??
Then it’s love.

Do you stay because a blinding, incomprehensible mix of pain and relation pulls you close and holds you there??
Then it’s love.

Do you accept their faults because they’re a part of who they are??
Then it’s love.

Would you give them your heart, your life, your death??
Then it’s love.

Now, if love is painful, and tortures us so, why do we love? Why is it all we search for in life? This pain, this agony? Why is it all we long for?

This torture, this powerful death of self? Why?

The answer is so simple because it’s LOVE. It is such an addictive thing that even people who are not having it wish to experience it and share it with others.

Just what is it in me?
Sometimes I just don’t know
What keeps me in Your love
Why You never let me go
And though You’re in me now
I fall and hurt You still
My Lord please show me how
To know just how You feel
You have forgiven me
Too many times it seems
I feel I’m not what you might call
A worthy Christian after all
And though I love You so
Temptation finds its way to me

Teach me to trust in You
With all of my heart
To lean not on my own understanding
I just forget
You won’t give me what I can’t bear
Take me out of the dark my Lord
I don’t want to be there, ooh, hah

You never left my side
You gave Your hand to me
To hold You, oh Lord Jesus
I’m no longer in the cold
And yet I leave You there
When I feel satisfied
I’d like to thank You everyday
Not only when I feel that way
I’ve never known a Man
Who’d give His life for sinners like me
And yet because He loves us so
He promised us eternity
And we can have His promise
and be His if we have faith and
Just believe..

Teach us to trust in You
With all of our hearts
To lean not on our own understanding
‘Cause we just forget
You won’t give us what we can’t bear
Take us out of the dark my Lord
‘Cause we don’t want to be alone
Take us out of the dark my Lord
We don’t want to be there
Yeah, my Lord

To trust in You with all of my heart
To lean not on my own understanding
‘Cause I just forget
You won’t give me what I can’t bear
Take me out of the dark my Lord
‘Cause we don’t want to be alone
You take me out of the dark, my Lord
I don’t want to be there,
Ooh,ooh…hah…
