I was reminded yesterday how important it is to KNOW God loves me. Like really "KNOW". The scriptures in Ephesians 3:14-21 talk about being rooted and grounded in this love in order to be strong. Gratefully, I have been reminded almost daily thru a personal sign from God that He loves me. Whenever I see the Wrangler Jeep, that God saved my life from on October 4, 1992, I receive it as the indicator, it is time for me to take a moment and thank God for my life. I have learned to acknowledge God's love for me at that moment as well. Sometimes I see the Wrangler Jeep 4 times a day and think, wow God you really love me. The point is for me to guard my thoughts from taking a negative turn on that day.
Daily disappointment can strip our sense of love really quickly. If we are not reminded with a hug from someone or the words I love you, our hearts can start to become hard, our attitude gets a little bitter and our thoughts are in a serious battle for affirmations. Suddenly, we can find our faith getting weak, our ability to love diminish and our joy stolen.
I have had to work hard at healing, restoring my joy and overall balance. I am so grateful I heard the message last night preached by Creflo Dollar, encouraging me to meditate more often on the truth that God loves me so my faith will work to conquer whatever necessary. Pastor Dollar suggests meditating on this truth at least 15 minutes per day. If God can care & provide for a sparrow, that is worth less than one penny, how much more will God care & provide for me. This mindset will allow me to remain in position for powerful results and victories in every area of my life. Click here to read more about me.
I wish that you discover God's love for you and never give it up!
