Your Love Is Better Than Wine

Your Love is better than wine Jesus. Oh Savior, that which you have to give me through and by Your love is greater than any passion with in me, no matter how deep its root within me. The things Your love unfolds before and within me, and the deep eternal pleasure it provides, far exceeds the deep longing in my flesh right now that afflicts my soul. It is because of such love I am able to awaken in the morning and endure any pain that may come to or upon me as a result of searching for greater depths of this love. It is Your love which is eternal and shall be lasting within my life when all else has found its way back to dust. No sign, wonder, miracle, healing, ministry, dream, or desire, whether Godly or ungodly, can surpass the Love a maker has for His creation or the Bridegroom for His Bride. Should I be a dead-raising, fiery preacher stomping on the devil in Africa, or a poor woman on a street corner living with nothing but the clothes on her back and the food left in dumpsters, I shall be forever undone, for Your love is greatest and superior. It is more supreme even than the desires I have for this life which You Yourself have instilled in me. When temptation encamps me and desire for immediate pleasures overwhelm me and seek to devour me, it is the remembering of Your love that quickens me to cry out for help and deliverance; it is that love that has touched an unreachable, locked away part of my being that screams louder than the desires of my flesh and saves me from the serpent of sin. May that love deepen and never be forgotten as temptation shall surely increase in time and desires rise to destroy me. For there is no Greater love than this, that a Bridegroom should lay down His life for His Bride.
