The Father's Love

DAY 4 OF 5

LOVED BY CLEANSING

Let the Lord see beneath the surface. Allow His love to penetrate. Permit Him to pass through all of your defenses to look at who you are under your makeup.
Read the following poem and then ask God to remove any sin that keeps you from receiving His love. Even though there may be no one that you really trust, will you trust Him? "Perfect love casts out all fear" (1 John 4:18). Let Him tenderly, carefully, and lovingly peal away the layers. Let Him wash it all away. Receive His love.


"Under My Makeup"

by Susan Sampson


Who am I under my makeup?

Am I someone who's afraid to be seen?

Or am I a daughter of the King?


Who am I under my makeup?

Am I someone who's afraid to be real?

Or have I been marked by the Holy Spirit's seal?


Who am I under my makeup?

Am I someone who's defined by my wrinkles and flaws?

Or have I been set free from the laws?


Who am I under my makeup?

Am I someone who just isn't good enough?

Or am I covered in Jesus' blood?


Who am I under my makeup?

Am I someone who doesn't like my own story?

Or was I created in the image of God's glory?


Who am I under my makeup?

I am someone who chooses to believe,

That I am a daughter of the King!

Let's take a closer look today at what Paul prays in Ephesians 3:14-21. What does Paul ask of God for the Ephesians? How can Paul ask these things? Is there anything God cannot do? Do you doubt? What are your doubts? Why do you have those doubts? Ask the Lord to help you live in the truth of His love and be cleansed.

Pray this prayer for your husband, your children, your loved ones, the church, and yourself.
