We love because...

Our 6 year anniversary watercolor photo!
4 September 2005

We love because
God first loved us!
He claimed our lives
with the great love of Calvary.
From that awesome reality
comes a love eternally.

We love because
God first loved us!
He brought us together
to live under His Word
embraced with a passion
to know and serve the Lord.

We love because
God first loved us!
He linked our hearts in love
allowing us to show
abiding, growing devotion
regardless of life's flow.

We love because
God first loved us!
He called us to Himself
gave each to the other
His pleasure to treasure
His grace beyond measure.

That is why we love because
He first loved us.
