Wondrous Love
"It is He who remembered us in our low estate, for His steadfast love endures forever;
And rescued us from our foes, for His steadfast love endures forever;
He who gives food to all flesh, for His steadfast love endures forever.
Give thanks to the God of heaven, for His steadfast love endures forever."
Psalm 136:23-26
What a wonderful reminder for this day: He loves us with a love that will never end!
He loves,defends, protects, delivers, sustains, strengthens, uplifts, comforts and cares for us like the best father does for his children.
In my early years, the picture I was given of God at home was often one of judge, jury and executioner. I always had a sense of waiting for the hammer to strike. I struggled for decades with understanding God to be a loving Father, who always wants His very best for His children. One who loves unconditionally - ALWAYS - no matter how I failed Him.
Once and for all, I came to terms with all of this....in a hospital bed this year.... Fearing for my life, then being wrapped in the arms of Wondrous Love and knowing real peace, love and comfort in my time of need.
I wouldn't trade one day of over 5 months of bed rest and suffering for that one realization!
He loves me...always has...always will!!!
"What wondrous love is this, that caused the Lord of bliss, to bear the dreadful curse for my soul."

Wondrous Love!
May you seek the Lord of love before you face any other today!
