. . . because I love you

I will cut you down
And throw you out
I will stomp you down
And crush you

Because I love you

I will let disappointments flood your soul
I will take away your security
I will destroy your high place
And I will crush your gods

Because I love you

I will let pain swell within you
I will let the hurt go deep
I will let you feel that pain is choking your life out
I will destroy your image

Because I love you

I will crush your pride
And kill your flesh
I will devour the things you love more than me
I will let the pain linger

Because I love you

Well that was encouraging!:) In our fleshly mind it is hard to comprehend that something like allowing pain could be loving. But as a parent I know that is exactly when I loved my own children the most. Love you!
