Dark but Lovely

"I cant understand this work of grace,
How a perfect God, would come and take my place!

Stars, they don't move You,
Waves, can't undo You,
Mountains, in their splendor, they cannot steal Your heart!

This God who is holy,
Perfect in Beauty!
Awesome in Glory!
Is ravished by my heart!

Though I'm poor, You say, "I am lovely."
Though I'm dark, You say, "I am beautiful."

Somehow my weak glance has overwhelmed You
And somehow my weak love has stolen away Your heart."

Words by Sarah Edwards.

I have been awed and struck by the words of these words, once again. I feels like I come with such broken, selfish and immature love to the Lord. It's all I have! And even the moments when I feel on top of the mountain (though few and far between), somehow pale in comparison when Jesus starts loving on me.

I am simply stilled and quieted with the amazing love of the Father, as He says over me. "Graham, even the weak glance, of your tear-stained face overwhelms me. Your love for me, although small and weak has stolen away my heart. You are beautiful to me...I love you!"
