Love Multiplied

I normally think best when driving. And since my ride home from work is 60-75 minutes each day, I get a lot of time to think if I'm not chatting on the phone. Some times I get lost in thought while thinking on my ride home. It gets to the point where I drive into my complex and reach down to grab the gate key, and then have to ask myself -- how did I get here? I suddenly forget all the timesI had to step my foot on the break, what lanes I switched to, if someone ever honked, or if a huge truck cut me off on I-285.
My mind has been wondering a lot this week, mostly to feelings of overwhelming love from my friends and family. Every time I get a chance to get down on myself, think too hard on someone's negativity, question my abilities, or want to run away from work and book releases, I get encouraged. The encouragement is so small many may not even realize how big of an impact it has. Every time someone clicks "accept" on the book release invite I get a notification and I am overjoyed. When a friend promotes the book to someone else, when they haven't read it yet, I think God is up to something. And I know He is. His love has not only orchestrated the book writing, but it is now orchestrating the marketing. He is truly doing all of the work and I am just the vessel. Well now all of my friends and family are also the vessels. It's not my book; It's our book. It couldn't get anywhere without them.
I am overwhelmed by His love. I am overwhelmed by the truth of this purpose and knowing that He will see this through to completion. It's not me at all anymore, it's completely all Him.
So I woke up this morning and praised danced to the Lord.
"Your love is like radiant diamonds Bursting inside us we cannot contain Your love will surely come find us Like blazing wild fires singing Your name
God of mercy sweet love of mine I have surrendered to Your design May this offering stretch across the skies And these Hallelujahs be multiplied"
