1. I love how he lifts me up when I'm down on my knees and the feeling he gives me when he embraces me in his love.
2. I love how I spend hours working up sweat on all manner of advanced texts and contingency plans concerning "destiny" and "purpose", and how he can give it all to me in two words, addling me for years to follow from the sheer simplicity of it.
3. I love the person he has made of me over the years, of what he has healed and brought forth from that frightened and self-destructive child of years past. Perfect no, but even in my present form, I take it as a reward.
4. I love the feeling of protection I feel when he embraces me at my most vulnerable, taking away all of fears and leaving me with wonder, spiritual warmth and a feeling of unbounded security.
5. I particularly love his example and teaching of love that he gave to us, so that we might know a path to live a full and blessed life with one another in this world and the next. His character surely will always give me someone to look up to.
6. I love that no matter where I may go, he always welcomes me home to return to rest my head and given me a family to share my life with.
7. I love that when all is said and done, no matter how the world treats me or others, that he shall come and find me and make the world right again. And the world shall know, through his adoption of me, that I will be able to call him my Dad, and Jesus Brother (never had a brother before this). No matter what they do to me here, they'd certainly think twice before hurting me ever again.
8. I love that he defeated death and rose from the grave so that he could return to me, and I could be with him.
9. I love his wisdom when he chooses to share it personally with me - even though I don't like the years I personally spend struggling with even the simplest of things he says.
10. I love that a day, one that will soon seem ever so soon when we get there, shall arrive when I will not be able to contain what I love about him in ten lines, nor the tomes of many books. Nor will anyone else, in those days when every soul will know the indescribable joy and their love of him shall over-flow their hearts at bowing before my God.
