Journey In The Love Of God!

For many years I never knew the love of God even though I was a Christian! This resulted in striving to feel good enough, not measuring up, feeling a failure and having fear and intimidation! So much so that even when I learnt the truth it didn't sink in. The only way to overcome this, is to meditate night and day in the word of God! Repeating positive affirmations about who you are in Christ, that you are His chosen, the apple of His eye, that He joys over you with singing and that you are highly favoured, greatly blessed and deeply loved. That He who knew no sin became my sin and I am now a child of God, crowned with His beauty, Glory and Honour. He fights for us, goes before us and will never leave us. The world (and the enemy) will continually come against this so we have to remind ourselves EVERY day of His love for us. You can know every verse in the Bible but if you don't know God loves you then you will find your Christian walk difficult. When adversity comes, this Truth will keep us strong. Knowing The Lord loves you is all the theology you need! He sees us and loves us as He loves His Son.how awesome that He gave HIMSELF! We are His treasured possession! I could actually go on and on! It's my favourite subject. He has us in the palm of His hand, He'll never let us go!
I loved listening to this Livy! I loved the analogy you make of sleeping beauty! I've written the word 'relentless' down as it jumped out at me so much!
