God always
loves us. His love never
goes away. It is always
strong and virbrant and
merciful. Even when we
feel as though we might
be forsaken and unloved,
the truth is - we are
always loved.
God does not forget His
own (Isaiah 44:21). He
extends His loving
kindness to us over and
over. We need to remember
how God did not forsake
the Isralite people ...
how He has not forsaken
the church ... how He
will never forsake us:
"I will never leave
thee or forsake
thee." These words
are precious and sweeter
than the drippings of the
honey comb. They are a
treasure beyond compare.
When troubles and trials
come along and it seems
as though God has
forsaken us, remember
when-
Remember
the parting of the Red
Sea...
remember the lonely cross
of Calvary.
Remember Jesus made the
demons flee...
remember He set Mary
Magdelene free.
Remember Jesus turned the
water into wine...
remember He healed the
lame, sick, and blind.
Remember
how the walls of Jericho
fell...
remember WHO holds the
keys to death and hell.
Remember
all the miracles He has
done...
know the power and might
of Jesus the
Son.
Allow the Holy Spirit of
God to bring to our
remembrance our
forefathers - how He
walked and talked with
them. The Old Testament
is filled with the good
news of God's love,
deliverance, and
guidance. The New
Testament brings us the
Good News of Jesus and
draws us to the very
heart of God.(We may not
be of the Jewish
nationality, but we have
been grafted into the
family of God. Remember
when God told Abraham
that he would become the
father of many nations.)
We are His chosen people.
He drew us into communion
with Himself. If we let
our minds dwell on God's
love, we will see for
ourselves how He has
always loved us even
before the earth was ever
created.
Absolutely the Bible is a
true record that contains
the greatest love story
ever told. God never
changes. He remains the
same today, yesterday,
and for all eternity.
"Jesus Christ the
same yesterday, and to
day, and for ever."
~Heb 13:8~
God has drawn us to
Himself out of bondage,
out of sin and idols, out
of despair and
hopelessness. He loves us
with a love so great we
cannot comprehend it. He
has drawn us out of the
world. He has drawn us
from death and given us
life. He has drawn us
into a covenant ..
>>..
a lasting and eternal
covenant. He has drawn us
into communion with
Himself where our hearts
are united in love
through our Lord Jesus
Christ.
Because He loves us with
an everlasting love, He
keeps us by His grace in
Jesus!

Heavenly Father,
I offer praise and
thanksgiving unto You for
all that You have drawn
me from. Thank You for
drawing me from darkness
and giving me light.
Thank You for drawning me
from the things of the
world that would destroy
me. Thank You for Jesus
and drawing me into
communion with Yourself
through Him. Thank You
for always being with me
and never ever forsaking
me or leaving me alone.
Thank You for Your love.
