He's gonna be worth it!

"Worth it all"
- by Rita Springer

"I don't understand Your ways
Oh but I will give You my song
Give You all of my praise
You hold on to all my pain
With it You are pulling me closer
And pulling me into Your ways

Now around every corner
And up every mountain
I'm not looking for crowns
Or the water from fountains
I'm desperate in seeking, frantic believing
That the sight of Your face
Is all that I need
I will say to You

It's gonna be worth it
It's gonna be worth it
It's gonna be worth it all
I believe this
It's gonna be worth it
It's gonna be worth it
It's gonna be worth it all
I believe this

You're gonna be worth it
You're gonna be worth it
You're gonna be worth it all
I believe this
You're gonna be worth it
You're gonna be worth it
You're gonna be worth it all
I believe this"

I believe this too. Everything that we experience on this earth is going to be so worth it when we finally see His face. Oh how I long for that day when I will be in the actual physical presence of my King, forever and ever and ever.

But, for now, I am here on this earth "for such a time as this." He put me here for a reason, in this very generation. It strikes me as utterly amazing that as messed up as this world is, we can still have an incredibly abundant life while we are here in it - simply by realizing our need for Jesus Christ. He loves us enough to give us a complete and satisfying life in Him, despite our ups and downs. He has fulfilled and continues to fulfill every need I've EVER had!

He is my EVERYTHING!

As a young girl, all I ever wanted was for someone to notice me, someone to think I was special, that I was beautiful, that I was the best. I never sought that out from God and I never believed I would ever find that kind of love for myself. I never found the complete and perfect love in a person that I was so desperate for because it does not exist. I was looking in the wrong place. Jesus is the one thing I had been looking for my whole life. He loves me like no human being ever has. You cannot put a price on His kind of love. He's all I've ever wanted and needed, and then some.

His love is radical, special, incredible, irresistable, priceless!!!

The same love He has for me, He has for you too!

John 16:33
"Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world."
