Only Your Love Will Do


Only Your Love Will Do:

O Lord my God, I'm reminded again today of Your wondrous love for me. How pure and unconditional and truly unchanging. Your love is the only powerful force strong enough to conquer my raging fears, yet gentle enough to calm my trembling spirit. Only Your love will do for me, Father.

"Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends." (John 15:13)

Your love gave all for me. Not a single ounce of it held back. You loved me until Your life ran out... But did You stop there? Certainly not! Your mighty love conquered death! Your love prevailed through grave depths, and rose again with triumphant victory and promising hope! Your love never fails me.

"Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance." (1 Corinthians 13:7 NLT)
"Love never fails [never fades out or becomes obsolete or comes to an end]." (1 Corinthians 13:8 AMP)

I know that in this life, I will face struggles and disappointments, but I am certain that Your perfect love will never forsake me. Your love is incapable of letting me down or letting me go. Your love perseveres with me even in the persistent storms this world whirls my way. You never leave my side.

You're walking with me now, hand in hand, lovingly encouraging me, "Dearly beloved child, I've planned each day with your needy desperation in Mind. Don't think for a moment that your dependency upon Me is a weakness. In fact, this is what makes you stronger. Your spirit receives riches when it's enriched by My glory and grace. Your heart becomes bolder when it beholds my broad and beautiful love and mercy. Take hold of this promise from Me today. I Am your eternal Lover. Nothing you do could ever cause My love to depart from you. The Blood of the Lamb, my Holy Atonement-Saviour Jesus, has paid your way to My welcoming Heart in full. No debt owed. No down payment plan. It's a gift. Receive My love-gift on this very special day."

On this Selah Saturday, let's all reflect on God's miraculous love-gift. Let's reflect on His perfect, unconditional love toward us. Hallelujah, He is so good to us.

Faith That He is Near Always

   One, of many things, for which I am very  grateful, is that the Lord is always near me. He is never far away. I can call on Him through prayer, and He will always listen. He genuinely cares for what I am worried about. No prayer is too small or unimportant, because we are God's children and He loves us all.    Call upon the Lord in times of need, and in times of joyfulness. He wants to commune with us. He desires our yearning for His presence. When we're longing for that "something more" He is the One that can satisfy. He is gentle and loving. He wants to be with you more than you can even imagine.    "The Lord is near to all who call upon Him, To all who call upon Him in truth." ( Psalm 145:18 ) It pleases Him when we reach out to Him in desperation. Because He is The Creator of all things that exist, when He is our passionate desire, When He is the One thing we need , that's when we are complete. That is when we have peace, joy, and abundant life.

I Loved You at Your Darkest

I Loved You at Your Darkest: "While he was still speaking, a bright cloud enveloped them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. Listen to him!” When the disciples heard this, they fell facedown to the ground, terrified. But Jesus came and touched them. “Get up,” he said. “Don't be afraid.” When they looked up, they saw no one except Jesus." (Matthew 17:5-8) In the first few verses of Matthew chapter seventeen, Jesus led Peter, James, and John up to a mountain top. It was just the four of them, or so the disciples thought. Whilst they were walking Jesus was "transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became white as light." (Matthew 17:2) Today, this passage is really speaking to me. I feel like the Lord is using this passage as a reminder that sometimes we must fall "facedown on the ground" in complete awe of His glory and surrender to His mysterious yet miraculous ways. A
