Consuming Love Quotes

“Deep You, you’re deep water And I’m scared because I can’t defaulter I don’t know how to swim, So, if I jump in, I’ll be consumed by your waves. I’ll try to keep my head above the rage. But you’ll just swallow up my whole. My entire being will be controlled. If I were to dive, I could no longer thrive. You would consume my being; Leaving me breathless, not breathing. Is there a medium I can prescribe? That would allow me to disguise The fear I gather in my bones. I just can’t swim in the water of morone. Do you possess a life support To hold me up? My last resort. If I jump in, I’ll drown in bends. Your love is suffocating, nothing can amend. November 20, 2011”

“Philip Galanes has fashioned a novel both bleak and funny about a young man's struggle to sort out his troubled love: the too-strong love for his mother, the too-weak love for his suicidal father, and the all-consuming love of anonymous sexual encounters. Pointed and acute, this story tells of the narrator's many betrayals of others and their many betrayals of him. It exists in an uncomfortable moral space where the humor of terrible things sometimes outweighs, but never obscures, their poignancy.”

“God is not calling us to win the world and, in the process, lose our families. But I have known those who so enshrined family life and were so protective of "quality time" that the children never saw in their parents the kind of consuming love that made their parent's faith attractive to them. Some have lost their children, note because they weren't at their soccer games or didn't take family vacations, but because they never transmitted a loyalty to Jesus that went deep enough to interrupt personal preferences.”
