People have heard me say before, and I really and truly mean it, "I am not amazed at what GOD does, He's GOD. I am amazed at what He does for me." I am blessed beyond measure, though I often take it for granted. I am not blessed because of the material things I have, though, they are nice and plentiful. No, I am blessed because of the spiritual - I am a child of the KING!
When things don't seem to be going my way, which happens, and I begin to feel as if I am someone's pin cushion, I try to remember that GOD loves me. On those days when I do things that I know I shouldn't do, when I am not the witness that I should be, when I feel bad because of my actions/inactions, I remember that GOD loves me despite all that.
Today's word is a quote from Roy Lessin that says, "It is wonderful to know that GOD is love, and even more wonderful to know that He loves us."
It is wonderful to know that GOD is love, that He exemplifies love by His sacrifice to redeem us back to Him. GOD proved His love on the cross. GOD proves His love by making a way for man to receive the greatest Gift ever. GOD is love!
It is even more wonderful, though, to know that GOD, the all powerful, the all knowing, the omnipotent, omniscient, would love someone like me. Despite all my faults and failures, despite all my shortcomings, despite myself, GOD LOVES ME! That truly is WONDERFUL!
Be Blessed,
Mickey T
