"More Like Falling In Love"

For Mother's Day my family and I gathered around the TV to watch one of my mom's favorite movies. After watching the entire 3 hours I was utterly disappointed because the love story didn't live up to my expectations. After expressing how annoyed I was at the way it ended my mom said to me "You have to live out your own love story Nicole!". After almost 19 years of watching every sappy love movie you could imagine I can't really express to you how incredibly excited I am to find the guy I can live out my own love story with. But today a song came on the radio that floored me. It completely changed my perspective on my relationship with God. It made me realize that yes, finding Mr. Right will be amazing....but no love a man gives me is ever going to compare to the love God has for me.

Read the lyrics to this song, I hope it impacts you as much as it did me.

"Give me rules
I will break them
Give me lines
I will cross them
I need more than a truth to believe
I need a truth that lives, moves, and breathes
To sweep me off my feet

It ought to be
More like falling in love
Than something to believe in
More like losing my heart
Than giving my allegiance
Caught up, called out
Come take a look at me now
It's like I'm falling, oh
It's like I'm falling in love

Give me words
I'll misuse them
Obligations
I'll misplace them
'Cause all religion ever made of me
Was just a sinner with a stone tied to my feet
It never set me free
It's gotta be


It's like I'm falling in love, love, love
Deeper and deeper
It was love that made
Me a believer
In more than a name, a faith, a creed
Falling in love with Jesus brought the change in me"
-Jason Gray

I still can't wait to find the love of my life, but my relationship with my savior will forever be the greatest love story ever told.

Lovelovelove,
Nic
