Reckless

This Holy Week I had the privilege of sitting through our communion services twice due to a small part in one activity. I was not prepared for the opening song (on either night). I know that sounds strange, but the first night I wasn't prepared because I didn't know it. On the second night, I simply wasn't prepared for a greater experience of connection than the night before.

As tears ran down my face listening to our band present the version you will find below, I was struck deep in my soul with the truth of the chorus:

O the overwhelming , never-ending reckless love of God
O it chases me down, fights till I'm found
Leaves the ninety nine
I couldn't earn it
I don't deserve
Still you give yourself away
O the overwhelming , never-ending reckless love of God

This is my experience of God - especially in my darkest times. Listen to the song that was the basis of their rendition. I hope you will experience God's overwhelming, never-ending reckless love.
