258 – You Are Loved

#faithbites #faithjourney loved

Guess what? You are loved. Not because work what you have done. Not because of who you are but because you are a child of God. Pretty awesome to know you are loved. No matter what the world says, you are loved.

Today I took the kids to our local pumpkin farm. They had a truck that was painted in chalk paint so you could draw on it. I picked up a piece and wrote up high: You are loved. I then drew a cross underneath it. A lady that either I need the farm or worked there told me thank you for writing that. I told her too often we forget God’s love.

Scripture about Jesus’s Love

• Know therefore that the LORD your God is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep his commandments, to a thousand generations. – Deuteronomy 7:9
• Give thanks to the God of heaven, for his steadfast love endures forever. – Psalm 136:26
• God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. – Romans 5:8

Reflection

If God is eternal and his love endures forever then he loves us forever, no matter our sins. There are times when we are under water and think we are alone but God loves us. There are times when we are on top of the world, we are stilll loved.

The world may tell you otherwise, but Jesus loves you .

By writing that on the truck, I touched at least one person. I hope this helps others remember.

Charge

Are feeling under water? Do you feel alone? Maybe unloved or unwanted? Guess what? You are not alone and very much loved. Help others by sharing the love of God in your daily activities. It just takes a smile and love.

Lord, help me to always be aware of your love. Help me always  to share your love with others.
