Happy Valentine’s Day, precious family of faith!!! Wherever you are today and whatever your life situation, I want to encourage your heart today that you are loved with a perfect everlasting love by our Father!!! He laid down His whole life to make you His beloved child forever through just your faith in His efforts on the cross to give to us each rescue from the evil one, who put upon all people the curse of death – the wages of sin. Oh but the good news by our Father’s big ole heart for us as His:
Through our faith in Jesus’ sacrificial love on the cross for us as believers, He delights in us and sees us as holy, blameless, without accusation and with no condemnation (Colossians 1:21-23; Romans 8:1) What He said long ago is still true today:
“The LORD appeared to us in the past, saying: “I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with unfailing kindness”
Jeremiah 31:3
God IS love and His love is sincere; He has hated the evil of the devil and has rescued us from him forever, clinging to what is good – US OF FAITH!!! When He created us He looked upon us and said “it is very good.” (Genesis 1:31) Through the cross, He has robed us in His righteousness and continues to work in us to will and act according to His purpose in this life!!! Apart from Him we can do nothing – He is our sufficient grace and there is nothing we can do or not do to make Him love us any more than He already does with perfect love!!! Enjoy His love for you today, dear ones!!! God thinks yer wonderful and me, too!!! Oh that just makes me smile!!! It’s gonna be a wonderful day with Father’s love surrounding us all day long!!! Enjoy some reflection time upon His love for YOU with the words of these songs here:
