These are some things that God taught me this morning in church. My heart continues to be overwhelmed with the love God has for me, the love that God has for all of us. I will never fully understand but I do know this, I don't want to live another day doubting that I'm loved by God. I don't want to waste another minute not resting in His unending love. The scripture we covered this morning was John 15:9-17
1.We are called to abide in His love, His perfect love. That means we live, sleep, our daily lives are always in His love. We should never leave or feel we are without His love.
2. Jesus went from being a teacher to being a friend. He considers Himself a friend to His disciples not just their teacher. That intimate level of friendship is what God desires from us!
3. We NEVER have to doubt if we are loved by God. There have been times in my past-and even still today that I feel maybe this person doesn't like me, or maybe they don't really want to be friends, or maybe they are just being fake with me. But I NEVER have to do that with God. He chooses to love me! He chooses to just because He can!
4. 1 John 4:18 there is no fear in love! When we abide in God, when we walk with God and in His perfect love, we have nothing to fear. My future, here on this earth, yes some parts are unclear and yes at times it scares me that I will fail big time because I feel inadequate, but God's love is bigger than all that! God's love is greater than any fear! That encourages me so much!!
I know this is a short post but I just wanted to share what was on my heart! The more I seek God, the more I thirst for His love and His truth! I pray you all KNOW and EXPERIENCE the true love of a Savior, Redeemer, Creator, Father, the One true God!
