Pieces by Amanda Cook

Ever being in a relationship with someone where it feels like you’re in some sort of roller coaster? Today it feels like the person is totally head over heels in love with you, the fairytale kind of love they portray in the movies and you think nothing can ruin this, then the next day you’re confused and you can’t even figure out where you stand with the person. It’s a whole new ride gone from sweet to sour and then bitter all at once. I’m sure most people can relate. Sometimes it’s not even a relationship between couples, it could be with friends or family. Just anyone you would regard as really close.

If we think about it, this is the same way most of us love God. Today we’re all about him so excited to just worship him and be in his presence, after a while we push him aside like he doesn’t really exist.

Basically I believe its because we’re humans and most times we love with the flesh and we’ve failed to understand the essence of true love and what it stands for, because God’s love for us is not some kind of fling, spark or crush.

We have to understand that love comes from God, love is of God and God himself is love. To love the right way we need to be in tune with the father of love himself. The one who pours out his spirit of love upon us all. 1 John 4:7-8, a verse we all sang as little children in Sunday school talks about the essence of God’s love and how God wants us to love.

Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. – 1 John 4:7-8

I’m in love with this song because every word broke down the way God loves. He doesn’t love like us, his kind of love is not Warm, cozzy and sweet today then harsh and cold tomorrow. His love is not passive, not disengaged, always present. His love keeps it’s  promises and vows. It doesn’t break them like humans do, it’s not selfish but selfless. His love is not in pieces but its full and eternal. He loves  each of us the same and he asked us to love others the way he loves us.

Can you imagine someone who loves you unconditionally, not ashamed of showing his love to you day and night. It never grows cold. That is God’s love for us. He said he has loved us with an everlasting love. That just blows me away! Sometimes I wonder what we would do if Jesus was still on earth physically. I’m sure we would never want to be away from him for two seconds.

In this season of Christmas, let’s remember the one who was born to this earth and constantly shows us great love. Let us learn to spread his kind of love to the world starting with the people around us and those who can’t even experience this love.

LYRICS

Unreserved, unrestrained
Your love is wild
Your love is wild for me
It isn’t shy, it’s unashamed
Your love is proud
To be seen with me

You don’t give Your heart in pieces
You don’t hide Yourself to tease us

Uncontrolled, uncontained
Your love is a fire
Burning bright for me
It’s not just a spark
It’s not just a flame
Your love is a light
That all the world will see
All the world will see

You don’t give Your heart in pieces
You don’t hide Yourself to tease us

Your love’s not fractured
It’s not a troubled mind
It isn’t anxious
It’s not the restless kind
Your love’s not passive
It’s never disengaged
It’s always present
It hangs on every word we say
Love keeps its promises
It keep its word
It honors what’s sacred
‘Cause its vows are good
Your love’s not broken
It’s not insecure
Your love’s not selfish
Your love is pure

You don’t give Your heart in pieces
You don’t hide Yourself to tease us
