Do you find it hard to receive the love of God? Do you condemn yourself because of past sins and count yourself unworthy to be loved by Him? Are you performing many "good works", but still doubting that Jesus died for you as a personal expression of the Father's love specifically for you?
Don't let this day go one moment further without understanding that God loves you.
It is not a selfish love, which is based on what you can do for Him.
It is not a soulish love that has to be worked up in the flesh.
It is not a deceitful love which pretends that you are just fine in your sin.
It is not a fleeting love, which is here one moment and gone the next.
It is a love that knows you at your worse, yet sees you as His best saying with arms outstretched, "Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee."
