love is a choice, and i choose it

love comes out of a confidence of ones one self worth.

you have to know yourself well enough to know.

to know that the feeling you are experiencing is nothing else you have ever felt before.

you can't quite put your finger on it.

but it's making you forget your responsibilities.

your pains.

your plans.

your cravings are not for your own pleasure.

but for someone more important.

you no longer are the center of your world.

and instead, you serve someone who is much more worthy.

to think that we love because He first loved us.

i owe Him everything.

a successful love is one that rests in that fact.

i say it over and over.

we love because He first loved us.

we love because He first loved us.

i can love because i was loved first.

i love peter because i was know how to be loved.

and the only way this love functions;

this love that i cannot contain;

is if i believe with all my heart that he loves me back.

that same black hole of appreciation and gratitude i have for my Savior;

i only have that because he loved me first.

and i believe that.

i really do believe i am worthy.

and that is the secret my friends.

believe it.

know it.

know you are worthy.

you are worthy.

so worthy.

to love,

to be in love,

it is only possible if you believe that someone loves you back.

and if you choose a different, an alternate path of love;

you are looking at the face of doom.

because we only love because he first loved us.
