Indescribable Loveಮಾದರಿ

God is love, and by his very nature, God gives generously. Therefore, there can be no love without giving. God the Father gave what was best for the human race; He gave his Son to reconcile us to Himself. Love always gives its best as the giver; the giver gives its best, for the best of the receiver. 

One of the greatest mysteries for us as believers is that a perfect God would accept us and love us so dearly. 

As my Dad has often said, "My heavenly Father doesn't tolerate me - He just loves me bouncing into His presence!" Did you get that? Our Heavenly Father doesn't just tolerate us. He loves us more than we could imagine! We are not a burden to Him, or a bother to Him, or a failure to Him. He loves us and accepts us! 

Sure, there are plenty of times when He needs to lovingly lead us forward, and sometimes that is through the doorway of discipline. But even that is done from a place of accepting and loving us. 

The writer of Hebrews encourages us to “approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.” (Hebrews 4:16) We are invited to come boldly before God's throne of grace. Why? Because He loves us and has accepted us as His own, knowing we will make mistakes, yet He is committed to us on the journey. 

Prayer:

Thank You, Father, for accepting me, for loving me, and for never giving up on me.
