Loved

When I think of the greatness of God, the love He endlessly overwhelms me with, the joy He allows me to feel, and pieces of His cross that He shares with me, I can’t help but be brought to tears by the beauty of it all. I think of my current state here on earth – human, weak and imperfect yet loved so greatly.

“God loves each one of us as if there was only one of us to love.” – St. Augustine

It is such a blessing to be loved by God through the people I have in my life. When I think of how great God is because of the many things He’s done and is doing to win my heart while I’m still here on earth, I can’t help but imagine Heaven. I am here on earth and I already feel so loved, how much more when I get to Heaven?

 
Thank You Lord for the love You make me feel that only makes me long to be with You even more. Strengthen me that I may not lose sight of my true home, which is wherever You are. Let me rest my heart in You. Amen.
