God IS love (I John 4:8), so His actions toward us can only be love.
Often we make the mistake of thinking that God sees us how we see ourselves.
If we feel ashamed or disappointed in ourselves, or feel unworthy or no good, we can make the mistake of thinking that’s how God sees us too. And to be honest, when we feel like that it is hard comprehend otherwise.
But God does not see us like we see ourselves. He IS love so He can only respond, feel and act toward us with love – and this is what the Bible tells us about His love –
“Love always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres and love never fails” (1 Corinthians 13:7-8). This is how God feels about you.
Your mind might find that hard to comprehend but if you take time to meditate on God and open your heart and spirit to Him and meditate on the words “God IS love” you will begin to feel his love pour into your heart and your soul.
You will begin to understand from your innermost self that He loves you, He protects you – He is always looking out for you, He trusts you, He has hopes for you, He always perseveres for you in every circumstance and He will never fail you.
He lifts our shame, He does not see us as unworthy or no good – instead He thinks you are amazing! Take some time today to still your thoughts telling you otherwise and let Him show you His love.
Praying you have a blessed and peace-filled day!
