This heart

I don’t know if I trust my heart to a human. I don’t know if I can willingly go through the pain of handing them my heart. One of two things always happen. Either they reject it right away or they pretend they want it for a while and then trample it in the dust. I don’t know if I can do that again. Will my heart ever be safe? Can I ever trust someone with it?

…

I think I know one place. I think I know someone who would never do that. I think if I put it in His hands that I might be ok. I think that if I gave it to Him that He would protect it like it was the rarest jewel He’s ever seen. I think if He had it, it would be high up, safe from being trampled on. If He was given my heart I don’t think He’d reject it. I think He wants it to keep for always. And then….I think the day that someone worthy of my affection comes along seeking my heart, I think on that day He will give that man my heart with cautious words:

Do you see this heart, young man? This heart is special. This heart is unique. This heart is not something to joke around with. If I give you this heart, you must promise to protect it, care for it, nurture it, love it. I know you are not perfect and sometimes you will fail. In those instances you can hand me this heart for safe keeping for a short time, but if you are taking this heart then you need to understand the responsibilities that come with it. I don’t want this heart trampled on again. I am trusting you, son. I am trusting you with one of My most precious creations. And the only reason I am giving you this opportunity is because I think you are the one for this. I think you are the one person who will do this heart justice and live up to the potential I have planned for it. Do you accept all these things and promise that this heart will be second only to Me? Then I give you this heart with many many blessings. Go forth and may this earth be blessed by My glory in you both.

I literally cannot wait for that day…
