Love
God is making it more and more clear to me that my love for Him is not nearly as significant as His love for me.I used to think that what made me significant as a Christian was that I chose to be one. It was my choice to love God and because I did, I was something special. I am beginning to understand now that its not very significant at all for someone to love the only things that gives them any hope. More significant is the fact that God in human form (Jesus) would love someone like me. Even after all the stuff that I have done, even after all the times that I have slapped Him in the face. True love is not that you love someone who is good to you, we as humans are really good at that kind of love. Can we really even call that love? No, love is this, not that we would love God, but that some how, some way that He could find it in Himself to love us. My only response is humble thankfulness and worship. God loves me, and that simple fact sustains me from day to day, because if it was my love for Him that I banked on to sustain me I would weather and fade day by day like the tides. God loves me, thats enough.
