love covers over a multitude of sins
past
present
future
love doesn’t get hung up
on a forgiven past
love sees its chosen one
naked
warts and all
uncovered
excuses laid down
but it still chooses to Love
unconditional love
love like Jesus
who died for me
while i was still
wallowing in my sin
even after i accepted
His free gift of salvation
and returned to my sin
even when i do what
i don’t want to do
again
His love covers over my sin
i want to love like that
i want a love like that

Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.

– 1 Peter 4:8 (NIV)
