Love Waits

lovewaits

Therefore the LORD will wait, that he may be gracious to you… – Isaiah 30, WEBBE

Love waits. Love is willing to wait because true love can never be replaced. We can love others, it is true. But we can never love another in the same way that we have loved before.

In the same way, God waits for us, for our love. If human love can occupy the whole heart, how much more must the love of God? In God’s heart, there is a place which only you can fill, and He IS waiting for you there.

I WAIT

I wait for you, my love
I wait…
I will not open my heart
to another.

For who is there
who can ever be like you?
Who is there
that can ever take your place?

In my heart is a space
that is so sacred
and none can enter in
but you.

And I shall wait for you
though it takes forever,
though my heart bleeds
and my all consumed.

I wait because I love you
And love waits
for the only one
that it loves.

“I was made and meant to look for you and wait for you and become yours forever.” – Robert Browning
