A creation. A masterpiece. Time, effort, and intricate details were used in the process of creating both me and you. We are a fabrication of God's very fingertips. All of mankind was made by God. And for what purpose? He has no need for us. But his heart yearns for relationship and so begun the formation of man. He desires to dwell with us. We are created in the image of God, and being that we have his very characteristics. We also desire relationship. Through relationship we find our true identity in God; we come to know him and see himself reflected in us. That is where we can find our value, our worth, our purpose. He sees us as his children who he loves and created to fellowship with. However, there's one thing which can separate us from our papa. That thing is sin. Yet God's love and longing to be with his children was so great he sent his very own son, Jesus Christ, to the earth to be killed by the very hands of mankind so there could be a path back to God. Do not think for one moment God pulled himself away from us. Sin is the thing that blinds us from him. Sin is not of God and so we were separated, but Christ gives us redemption from sin. Through this whole obstruction God has loved us. It's even why he sent Christ; his love was so great for us that something must be done so we could be with the Father once again. Be encouraged today that Christ's love for you is so wide, deep, and great. In Him, you are whole. He is satisfied to dwell with you. Find your worth in God because he created you and knows every detail about you. You are a masterpiece of the most high and he longs for you; desperately longs for you.
Romans 8:38-39
Yes, I am sure that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor ruling spirits, nothing now, nothing in the future, no powers, nothing above us, nothing below us, nor anything else in the whole world will ever be able to separate is from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Your feet are beautiful in sandals,
you daughter of a Prince.
Songs of Solomon 7:1a
Have a great week ahead!
