impatient?

"When you are truly in love, you go to great lengths to be with the one you love. You'll drive for hours to be together, even if its only for a short while. You don't mind staying up late to talk. Walking in the rain is romantic, not annoying. You'll willingly spend a small fortune on the one you're crazy about. When you're apart from each other, it's painful, even miserable. He or she is all you think about; you jump at any chance to be together."

so i'm realizing that for some stupid reason, i dont love You like i should
but i'm searching
and wanting so much to love You
Francis Chan says, "Our prayers for more love result in love, which naturally causes us to pray more, which results in more love..."
well i know in my head that You love me
i've been told that my whole life
but why can't i just accept it and love You back?
love You in a way that breaks down all the stupid things keeping my from obeying You.
love You so immensely that i need nothing else.
love You so fully that there is no physical way for me to keep it to myself or focus on myself because everything i do, i do for You
so i beg You please!
help me
i need You
i can't accept and love You back on my own because You are in completely control of my heart.
i'm searching and not seeming to find anything
my head knows it but my heart doesnt seem to feel it
change my heart
"Tell Him you want to love Him more than anything on this earth." Lord of creation, i want You to be the most supreme love in my heart. a love that surpasses the love of my wonderful friends and amazing family. i really do
"Tell Him you want to treasure the kingdom of heaven so much that you'd willingly sell everything in order to get it." King of all things, I want to stop worrying about the things of this world and most focus on what's in store for me at the end of my physical life. Heaven. Paradise. Eternity with my best Friend, Lover, Father, Saviour, Lord, King, and God.
"Tell Him what you life about Him, what you appreciate, and what brings you joy." Oh, my God, i adore that you love me. you dont try to tweek me. you made me and in Your eyes i'm perfect. You desire to be with me. You bless me knowing how undeserved i am of it. You keep me safe. You humble me. Thank You, Wonderful Creator, Jesus who died. AND LIVES.

"The critical question for our generation - and for every generation - is this: If you could have heaven, with no sickness, and with all the friends you ever had on earth, and all the food you ever liked, and all the leisure activities you ever enjoyed, and all the natural beauties you ever saw, all the physical pleasures you ever tasted, and no human conflict or any natural disasters, could you be satisfied with heaven, if Christ was not there?" - John Piper, God Is the Gospel
