I just want to tell you that God loves you so much. In the Bible, Love is defined as patient, kind, it does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs( That can be difficult lol). Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth, it always protects, always trusts, always hopes, and always perseveres – 1 Corinthians 13:4-7. There is nothing that you can do that will separate you from the love of God. In every circumstance, God is there carrying you through because he loves you. No matter the sin big or small, he loves you the way you are. He also loves you enough to change you for greater. God sees the best in you and knows your destiny.
God is love and love is God. In his word, he expresses his love for his people. 1 John 4:7 says, ” Dear Friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.” This scripture not only tells us that God is love but encourages us to love others. When you made the choice to follow Christ you made the choice to love. John 3: 16 says, ” For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” WOW! what man on earth do you know will go to those measures just to show you that they love you???? God displays his love in so many ways such as forgiving our sins on a daily, healing families from sickness, restoring marriages, protecting children from harm, providing when in need, and the list goes on.
I charge you to write a list of things God has done in your life to display his love. I’m pretty sure the list would probably turn into books, but really examine God’s love for you. When knowing how much he really loves you, your life won’t be the same. Stay encouraged my sister 🙂
