For You bless the godly, O LORD; You surround them with Your shield of love.
Psalm 5:12
There is not one thing that we can compare to God’s love for us and nothing we can measure it by.
There is absolutely nothing more powerful than the love He has for us. His love can; move mountains, heal broken hearts, transform lives, set us free from sin, addiction and shame.
His love for us is so grand, that he sent his only son to die for our sins. He literally left the embrace of his son, in order to save us and have us with him for eternity.
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.”
John 3:16
God loves you simply because he loves you. You don’t have to work for his affection, or get everything right before coming to him.
You come to him just as you are and he does the transforming.
Sometimes, we might doubt the love God has for us because of a relationship that broke us or because of an event that hurt us or even because of our own bad choices.
Scripture tells is that “God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”
Romans 5:8
When we begin to accept that true love from our Father God, our feelings for Him will begin to change. As we seek to know him better and spend more time meditating on Scripture and seeking his face, our relationship with him becomes more intimate.
Even as it is with any relationship, the more we spend time with someone, the closer and more intimate we become to them.
People will fail you and friends will fail you, your workplace might also fail you, but God’s love will never fail you!
Many Blessing’s,
Connie
