How I long to be in love.

I've lately been thinking a lot about love. True love, friendship love, love for my sisters and my family, romantic love, obsession... but mostly, God's love.

More than anything, I want to be so madly in love with my Savior that I think about nothing but Him. He encompasses every thought and every movement, until every breath I breathe is like speaking His name. I want Him to take over my mind fully for Him until everything I do- EVERYTHING- is focused on Him. I want to talk to him when I am in the bathroom; when I lay on my bed I want to be listening to His voice. I want to spend time in His presence, feel His arms and have Him whisper to me. I want to notice His miracles, thank Him for His blessings, and devote myself 13r8908430928340923% to Him and Him only.

God's love is like every type of love mixed into one and then on steroids and amplified through the loudest PA system you have ever heard. It's perfect because He is love. I want to be in love with that.

I want to be in love with Love.

Wait...

I think I already am.
