Love is not a fight - Warren Barfield
Love is not a place
To come and go as we please
It's a house we enter in
Then commit to never leave
So lock the door behind you
Throw away the key
We'll work it out together
Let it bring us to our knees
Love is a shelter in a raging storm
Love is peace in the middle of a war
And if we try to leave, may God send angels to guard the door
No, love is not a fight but it's something worth fighting for
To some, love is a word
That they can fall into
But when they're falling out
Keeping that word is hard to do
Love will come to save us
If we'll only call
He will ask nothing from us
But demand we give our all
I will fight for you
Would you fight for me?
I cant help but think of Rocky in all this. I watched Fireproof, which I told myself would be lame, and its because I needed to watch it today and not just on a whim any other day. I want Rocky in a way that means sacrifice of everything selfish in me. Lord give me whatever componants I need to truly love him. "God my God, I cry out, your beloved needs you now. God be near, calm my fear and take my doubt. Your kindnesses is what pulls me up, your love is what draws me in. I will lift my eyes to the maker of the mountains I cant climb."
