i want to give it all

I was preparing to come to school for an oral exam in Philosophy when I came across a local TV show. (jologs? hehe whatever, that's not my point anyway :p) There was this young girl and a youth choir singing this song for a couple, who were helping out a foundation for kids.

I went to school, finished my oral exam, went to the life meeting in UP, and finally went home finding myself humming the melody of this song. I can only remember the first two, and last two lines of the chorus, so I figured I had to search for the complete lyrics of the song and who was behind its melody and words.

Now I know why I just can't get enough of it. It reminds me of the greatest love I ever had and will ever have. It's Your love, Jesus.

I Want To Give It All
Air Supply

Here I am again
I've come to see You smile
I know You understand
I have to say again
It's only for a while

And still You're always here
Just waiting for my call
I wish I knew a way
To give more than I do
I want to give it all

*It doesn't happen every day
But it happened to me once before
Those early years I threw away
Now I only have to hear Your voice
To make me feel so sure
That Your love is why
I want to give it all

Don't the minutes fly
And hours just seem so few
With days apart so long
It's hard to spend my time
When I'm so far from You

And still You're always here
Just waiting for my call
I wish I knew a way
To give more than I do

I want to give it all

a love letter

Everyone longs to give themselves completely to someone, to have a deep relationship with another, to be loved thoroughly; but God to His daughter says:

"No, not until you are satisfied and content with being loved by Me alone, with giving yourself to Me to have an intensely personal and unique relationship with Me alone... I LOVE YOU, My child... and until you discover that only in Me is your satisfaction to be found, you will not be capable of the perfect human love relationship that I have planned for you. You will never be united with another until you are united with Me, exclusive of anyone and anything else, exclusive of any desires or longings. I want you to stop planning, stop wishing, and allow Me to give you the most thrilling plan existing --- one that you cannot imagine!

I want you to have the best. Please allow Me to bring it all to You. You just keep on trusting Me. Keep learning and listening to the things I tell you... You must wait. Don't be anxious. Don't worry and never look around and envy at the things others have gotten or that I have given them. You just keep on looking up to Me, or you will miss what I want to show you. And when you are ready, I will surprise you with a love far more wonderful than anyone would ever dream.

You see, until you are ready --- and until the one I have prepared for you is ready, I am working this very minute to have you ready at the same time. And until you are both satisfied exclusively with Me and the life that I have prepared for you, you won't be able to experience the love that exemplifies your relationship with Me --- and that is perfect love...

I want you to see in the flesh a picture of your relationship with Me and enjoy materially and concretely the everlasting union of beauty and perfection and love that I offer to you with Myself. Know that I love you...utterly much more than you love yourself. I am God Almighty... Believe and be satisfied..."

you say...God says :)

I got this from a friend back in high school...and I knew I just have to be His messenger RIGHT NOW. Read on my friend, and hear the voice of our Father as He answers every unspoken thought in your mind. Have that long-awaited light bulb moment! :)
