I was thinking and it is utterly amazing what God does for us. I am so unworthy, so sinful, so rebellious against him, yet he still wants me. He is still perusing me. He still shelters me after all I've done. After all the times I've used him, ignored him, cursed his name, he's still there with open arms waiting for me to come back to him. He loves me regardless of everything I've done. He's done so much for me and for what? So I can go off, living as though he's not there. We all want that "perfect relationship", whether its with a parent, lover, friend, etc., but we don't realize that we already have that. We already have someone that loves us more than we could possibly fathom. So why do we ignore that? Why do we simply push that aside in return for Earthly relationships and Earthly love that aren't nearly as great as what God has for us. We fill our lives with Earthly things that will never fully satisfy us, but why? I can't imagine why we ignore that.
We have the perfect relationships right at the tip of our fingers, but we don't reach out and grab it. Because? because we're too lazy? Too scared? Too worried we're doing something wrong? We don't want to change? Endless love isn't worth that little bit of effort?!?! We don't read the Bible because we're scared? We think its a bunch of "Rules and Regulations"? NO! Its not, its the biggest love book in this world. Its not a bunch of "thou shalt not do this" and "thou shalt always do that". No, its filled with "I love you", "I'm perusing you", "you mean everything to me." YOU, individually, mean everything to me. He knows each and every one of us better than we know ourselves and he loves us... for US! He loves us constantly, CONSTANTLY. No matter what we've done in the past or what we're doing now... and when you realize that, you can't contain it.
So I'm sure you're thinking "Wellllll Kayla, you just have more faith than me!"
WELLLLL PERSON... all you need is faith the size of a mustard seed. (:
