O How He Loves Us.....

Do you see other women who seem to be so close and well, so loved by Jesus?

Do you ever feel you are watching them have a relationship with God and His people from behind a thick glass wall?

Satan is a liar.
He wants you to think you are all alone and that nothing matters.
He wants you to think you aren't good enough, spiritual enough, or deserving of God's love and His goodness.
Satan is a liar.

Jesus tells us in the Gospels on multiple accounts that God says you are:
* the apple of His eye
* the temple of His spirit
* the daughter of the King
* extravagantly loved
* relentlessly pursued
* worth the life of His Son, Jesus Christ.

Jesus is Truth.
God is love.

stop interpreting God and His love through your circumstances.
start interpreting your circumstances through the loving, good character of God.

to start NOW, put your phone away. go to a place where you can be alone for 10 minutes and watch this twice.
notice how your spirit begins to swell. notice how you may get "chill bumps."
begin to be swept away by His affections and His extravagant love, His amazing grace, and His tender wooing.
you are loved.
In Christ, Who is Emmanuel, you are never alone.
He sees you. He loves you. He has good for you. He is delighted in you and delights in revealing His love to you.
You matter and everything you do, hidden or acknowledged, matters to God- nothing is wasted in His economy.

when you are done, take a few minutes and journal what you hear Him saying to you. journal your thoughts toward Him.
share your experience here with your G & B Sisterhood.

love is sweeter when it's shared- send this to the friend God is laying on your heart to share it with.
