When you don't feel like you deserve love..

I trust you all had a great week! Times are changing! Leaves are turning colors. Flips flops and swimsuits are being turned in for boots, and backpacks. It's a time for great harvest! The Lord seems to remind me of His sovereignty in times like theses. I am not one to like change. I don't even like it when the leaves change. It's a feeling of watching a part of my life be placed behind me, and a new season up ahead. It's a time to adjust and learn to adapt to different circumstances. Don't get me wrong, I love new beginnings. I do.

The Lord, in all His majesty drops little gifts in our laps everyday. Today, He did that for me. I learned that it doesn't matter what you've done or haven't...nothing can separate you from God's love. But also, His love is NOT conditional to our performance. Maybe you think that to have someones love you have to earn it, or have to do something to deserve it. I'm here to tell you that with ANY human being, you will find that sometimes love is conditional. But I'll tell ya, His love, oh man....there is nothing like it. And you don't have to earn it. You don't have to do the right thing, never screw up, or fail in order to be seen worthy in His eyes. His love is there. And not only is it there, but He beckons you to come to Him. He whispers sweetly in your ear. If anything, THAT is the love you don't deserve, and yet...He gives it freely. Amazing.

So next time, when someone doesn't show love to you, don't think it isn't because you don't deserve it. Remember, you are to die for.

And that is something to praise Him for!

Be Blessed my dear one.

As you watch, don't forget, He did that for YOU!
