God's love never stops because His heart is love. That's been something that has been dancing around in my mind the last few weeks. I've been just trying to focus on the kindness and goodness of God's heart and the fact that it is because of love that He blesses and saves us. We cannot earn it. We cannot undo it. We cannot lose it. He doesn't change. He doesn't give up. He doesn't un-love.
So I was reading one of my devotionals a few days ago and the title was "God's Great Love for Us." It spoke about how God loves us even when we feel and are unlovable. When we sin, when we fail, His love remains strong. The reading referenced Romans 5:8 (But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners.) reminding us that God's love isn't a reward for something we do or did.
So, I've mentioned before that I have an app on my phone that gives a daily Bible verse. And I'm sure you've guessed where this is going....lol. Yup, God confirmed the reading with an often quoted, much loved verse...He's so amazing. Jeremiah 31:3 Long ago the Lord said to Israel: “I have loved you, my people, with an everlasting love. With unfailing love I have drawn you to myself.
Everlasting. Unfailing. Those words practically jump off the page. How beautiful is that. My Mom used to come home from some of her shopping trips with a little gift for me. Sometimes it was a blouse, sometimes a brownie, maybe something for the house...nothing major, just a small something to let me know she loved me and was thinking of me. And that is what this visit from God reminds me of. Just a reminder that He loves me and is thinking of me. And I hope in posting this God visit here it will be the same for you dear readers. He loves you. Always. And He is thinking of you and wants you to know it!
God all I can say is thank You. You are awesome. And I love You.
Receive God's love today. Remind yourself it never fails. And then, if need be, remind yourself again, and again, and again....
