as i am...

as i was cleaning my living room yesterday (i know...don't be jealous of my elegant life) =) my ipod was blasting...on random...which i love...because then i have NO idea what song will play...and this one came on...and i had just this overwhelming feeling...God does that...truly...all the time...it still amazes me how He chooses to speak to us...what He chooses to say...ALWAYS at the right time...

His love for me...i will never ever ever understand...but i'm SO thankful for it...He loves me...just as i am...when i think about it...seems so crazy...but it's true! Thank you Lord!!

be encouraged today...there is someone who loves you...cherishes you...adores you...

as i am by kim boyce

When people throw sticks and stones
And they say I don't belong
You love me as I am

When courage is hard to find
And I don't have the strength to try
You love me as I am

As I am in all my weakness
As I am with all my faults
You came running like my champion
Just to love me as I am

When envy invades my heart
And tears it all apart
You love me as I am

When forgiving is hard to do
When I lose sight of You
You love me as I am

As I am in all my weakness
As I am with all my faults
You came running like my champion
Just to love me as I am

Somehow you see the best in me
When I just see the worst
Your faith in me is amazing
It's more than I deserve

As I am in all my weakness
As I am with all my faults
You came running like my champion
Just to love me as I am

You came running like my champion
Just to love me
Just to love me as I am

Elena,

I don't know you but I want to thank you for posting this! I have learned but to hate myself over he years and this past weekend was tough for me. I remember "As I Am" from when I was a child and I must say that it's been in my mind all day. I came upon your blog when googling the lyrics to the song, and I'm forever thankful!

Thank you for sharing God's love with the world.

May the lord continue to bless you always!
