Oh, How He Loves You!

How great the Father's love towards you. He rises every morning to show you mercy. He thinks loving, good thoughts about you, and rejoices over you with singing. He sees you and knows you. He made you specifically as He desired and planned, and He is pleased with His creation. You do not have to prove your worth or perform for Him. He loved you while you were still stuck in your sin, and rejecting Him. How much more now that you are turning back to Him?

He has good plans for you. He longs to tell you about them and loves when you ask Him, and include Him in your plans and dreams seeking His advice and direction, above all others. He wants you to trust Him and His intentions toward you. He seeks to do you good and not harm, all the days of your life. He is GOOD and longs to do good toward you, and He desires that you walk in faith with Him, in that thought towards EVERYTHING in your life. He has already proven Himself trustworthy by holding nothing back from you, even His Son, so you can trust Him with all things in your life.

He is not annoyed with you, but is long-suffering and patient, waiting for you, and calling to you.

You are dearly loved and His treasured possession. He is jealous for you because He wants all of you, and knows that when you are completely focused on Him, that is where you are most joyful, safe, and will reach all the things He has planned for you.

You are beautiful to Him, not because of what you can do, but because of who you are, and because of the Love He has for the Son. Receive His love, know His love, rest in His love, revel and relish His love for you.

You are chosen, beloved, wrapped in His embrace, and accompanied on every day, on every walk through every event. In fact problems are not problems, because He is there. Give thanks even now for His love, His help, and this situation, and ask Him to show you the answer. He is faithful, wise, and just, and is looking for your cooperation with Him, to solve them all.

Thank you Lord for loving us, and not just putting up with us. Thank for pursing us, speaking to us, and carrying us, when our own strength is gone. Thank you that you delight in us and long to be in relationship with us. Thank you that you are good and trustworthy. Let us not doubt you or have thoughts they sway back and forth towards you or our challenges in this life. Help us to know you ARE there working for good on our behalf and speaking to us to help us overcome sin, directing us on each path to take, on how to encourage others, and helping us in our daily life. You are so, so good to us.
