Spiritual emotions result in Christian practice because their object is the loveliness of spiritual things, not our self-interest. People have a defective Christianity because they are seeking their own interests in it, not God’s. So they accept Christianity only to the extent that they think it serves their interests. By contrast, a person who accepts it for its own excellent and lovely nature, accepts everything which has that nature.
Jonathan Edwards

The Love of God

Listen

Why, why are you still with me?
Didn’t you see what I’ve done?
In my shame I want to run and hide myself
But it’s here I see the truth
I don’t deserve you

But I need you to love me, and I
I won’t keep my heart from you this time
So I’ll stop this pretending that I can
Somehow deserve what I already have
I need you to love me

I, I have wasted so much time
Pushing you away from me
I just never saw how much you could cherish me
Cuz you’re a God who has all things
And still you want me

But I need you to love me, and I
I won’t keep my heart from you this time
So I’ll stop this pretending that I can
Somehow deserve what I already have
I need you to love me

Your love makes me forget what I have been
Your love makes me see who I really am
Your love makes me forget what I have been

But I need you to love me, and I
I won’t keep my heart from you this time
So I’ll stop this pretending that I can
Somehow deserve what I already have
I need you to love me
