The One Who Loves You

Psalm 91:4-7 (NIV)

4) He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings will you find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.
5) You will not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day,
6) nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday.
7) A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you.


I find it amazing, that as a mere human 
being, among millions of others, that there 
is a God, a loving God, that cares for me 
that way.
 
Our society teaches girls to look for love 
through insecure, unsteady, unstable 
relationships, habits, and addictions.
There is no guarantee of love; no 
guarantee if you are safe in being able to 
trust something or someone else with what you need.

Yet, there is one man that holds all that we 
could ever possibly want. He is offering to 
hold us in the palm of His hand for the rest of our lives. And when we die, He promises us an entirely perfect eternal life with Him.

He has written us a book, filled with wisdom, healing, and guidelines.
He has expressed His love for us, over and over again (John 3:16 Romans 5:8, 8:37-39
1 John 3:1 John 15:9-17)
He has given us guardian angels to watch over us (Psalm 91:11)
He is always there when we call (Psalm 91:15).
He sees us as beautiful (Proverbs 3:15-18 Psalm 34:5)

He does everything He can to capture our hearts; He even died a terrible death, just for 
our freedom.

Even though He knew that many of us would turn Him down.
Even though He had no promise from us that we would return that love.
Even though very few of us are willing to die for Him.

Think about it. Why do we run from the very love that sacrificed everything for us? Why
do we refuse our ultimate, perfect soulmate?

It overwhelms me. I pray that it always does.





Let His love make you whole. Let it make 
you who you are. Let it heal your wounded
heart. 
Let Him hold you in His lap as you cry. You
are His child. You are His princess. He is 
your soulmate. Turn to the One who loves 
you in your time of need.
