Good Morning Beauties!
Loved above all things? Really? Is that true? YES! How can God love me despite all my mistakes and failures, daily failures? God does not put conditions on His love for us. He loves us whole heartedly and nothing can separate us from His unfailing love. Let’s look at what scriptures tells us…
”So now I live with the confidence that there is nothing in the universe with the power to separate us from God’s love. I’m convinced that his love will triumph over death, life’s troubles, fallen angels, or dark rulers in the heavens. There is nothing in our present or future circumstances that can weaken his love. There is no power above us or beneath us—no power that could ever be found in the universe that can distance us from God’s passionate love, which is lavished upon us through our Lord Jesus, the Anointed One!” Romans 8:38-39 The Passion Translation.
Do you find this love hard to believe? Is it because someone has put conditions on their love for you? I think we as humans do put conditions on our love for others. If we’ve been hurt by someone, we tend not to love them with all our heart. It’s even hard to pray for them as we’re commanded to by God.
Have you ever tried to prove yourself worthy of someone’s love? I have. We tell ourselves, “if I’m good enough, surely they’ll love me.” With God, there’s no need to earn His love by good performance. He loves us just the way we are, and above all things. (The good, the bad, and the ugly.)
Reflect on times when you’ve doubted God’s love for you. What specific lies from the enemy did you believe? Pray and ask God to bring these lies to the surface so He can replace them with His truth. Will you join God who sees you rise above the things of this world, including your sin? Selah.
Love and Blessings,
Kendra
