Love is consuming

On Saturday, Jordan Schroeder entered the heavenly gates and stood in the presence of His Lord. Before he did, he and Katelyn gave everything they hoped and dreamed of to their Heavenly Father. Read their post - http://jkschroeder.blogspot.com/ - When I am weak, then am I strong. 2 Cor 12:10

This morning is his funeral. As I was going about the house praying for Katelyn and their families this morning, I heard this song on the radio:

“You Can Have Me”
by Sidewalk Prophets

If I saw You on the street
And You said come and follow me
But I had to give up everything
All I once held dear and all of my dreams
Would I love You enough to let go
Or would my love run dry
When You asked for my life

When did love become unmoving?
When did love become unconsuming?
Forgetting what the world has told me
Father of love, You can have me
You can have me

If You’re all You claim to be
Then I’m not losing anything
So I will crawl upon my knees
Just to know the joy of suffering
I will love You enough to let go
Lord, I give you my life
I give you my life

When did love become unmoving?
When did love become unconsuming?
Forgetting what the world has told me
Father of love, You can have me
You can have me

I want to be where You are
I’m running into Your arms
And I will never look back
So Jesus, here is my heart

When did love become unmoving?
When did love become unconsuming?
Forgetting what the world has told me
Father of love, You can have me
You can have me

When did love become unmoving?
When did love become unconsuming?
Forgetting what the world has told me
Father of love, You can have me
My Father, my love
You can have me
