When I think back at what my life was without Jesus Christ
it makes me more profoundly in love with Him each day!
I was like the proverbial "Walking Dead".  The Lord is
the love of my life before any other person, He saved
me from death, literally.

Desperate Love I’m so desperately in love with You, my God no burden of Yours now is too hard to bear and when my friends and family in foolishness talk against me to You I can give all of cares. Each day Lord I ask Your Holy Spirit to once again fill me with such love inside for Him that kind of love that only He deserves Lord a love only Your Holy Spirit can place within. I used to try to love You, Lord in my own strength and I knew I fell so far short I’d begin to cry but then Your Holy Spirit came and showed me to have this kind of love that to myself I would have to completely die. His kind of love says precious Lord no matter the cost for You that I’ll do all because I want to please You Lord and always and I mean always I will stay so close to You. A desperate love of His Spirit leads you deeper and deeper in Him until you find yourself still so hungry for Him and His person that nothing else can satisfy or take that place within. So please Lord keep me hungering and thirsting for more of You till that trumpet sounds to call me home and may I be filled consistently with a passionate desire for You and Your will and carry Your anointing with me wherever You have chosen for me roam.
