A quick note of encouragement for you today:
Last Wednesday I was standing in worship at Bible study and was feeling really awful. I just felt so unclean, so wretched, so unloved. I was listening to lies that were telling me how unlovely I was. In the midst of feeling this way, God spoke to me so clearly.
He said: "Why would I heal something that I don't love?"
I immediately froze with adoration and shock. My whole mindset was changed in an instant.
He instantly healed me of nine "incurable" diseases when I was twelve in case you aren't familiar with the testimony He has given me.
So, let me get this straight. The Creator of the universe loved me enough to physically heal my dying body, to emotionally heal my heart, and to breathe life into me...? Wow.
Even if you are sitting here thinking "Yeah, well, I don't have such a dramatic story..." God's love is evident in your life too. He is the source of our life.
The very fact that you are breathing is a testimony that God loves YOU.
So choose this mindset every day as you seek God more and more:
THE CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE IS SO IN LOVE WITH AND HEAD OVER HEELS FOR YOU! How cool is that?
God wants to work in your life. He wants to bring emotional and physical healing. But we have to do our part too. We have to walk with Him, get to know Him and get in relationship with Him. He loves you. He tells us many times that we are the apple of His eye. So if me and you are the apple of God's eye, and we have a full understanding of that reality, we can choose to refuse any lies that tell us otherwise.
You are lovely. You are fabulous. You are loved. God says it. Believe it. Every day.
