Encouragement
I find myself at times trapped, not knowing where my end begins and my beginning ends. It can be very frustrating, feeling this way not knowing if the path that I am on is the right one or where it will lead me too. Sometimes I forget about my path all together. The troubles of life get in the way and I’m lost again…not sure of what I’m doing or where I’m going.
But there is one thing that never leaves me…that I hold true to my heart…the Love of our God. “For God so loved the world, He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him, shall not perish but have ever lasting life.” John 3:16. What powerful words! God’s love is so deep and real for us that He was willing to give His most precious gift to YOU, to ME, to ALL OF US, His son Jesus Christ. In a world where things are all about self, it amazes me to know that despite our faults and fears, God’s love overcomes and He’s made a way back to Him. We are His prize possession, the Apple of His eye and He will do anything for us.
And like any loving father who seeks to help his child, God is there when we are discouraged waiting patiently for us to ask for His help. Even before my first words are uttered, God is there, encouraging me, loving me and when I wonder, “Why me? Why does God love me?” He tells me with His own Words: “Long before He laid down earth’s foundations, He had us in mind, had settled on us as the focus of His love, to be made whole and holy by His Love. Long, long ago He decided to adopt us in His family through Jesus Christ.” Ephesians 1:5 (The Message). Our Father loves us more than words can ever describe.
I encourage you to seek God’s love, to know His word and keep it in your hearts. For when we are weary and burdened, when we are lost and trapped, when we are discouraged and overwhelmed, we can remember God’s love. We can feel His warm embrace in our inner soul and know that we are His main focus, His prize possession and there is nothing in this world that could take God’s love away. After all…WE ARE….DAUGHTERS OF THE KING!

"seek God's love"....how true, since GOD IS LOVE we seek God and his love is revealed to us. I do not think any of us understand the true depth of God's love for us or will we ever in our human thinking comprehend the love of God. To me just knowing HE is love and He loves me is enough for now. GOD BLESS YOU
