Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good.
His love endures forever.
Psalm 136:1 (NIV)
Dear God, can your love for me really be that easy? I can never be sure if people even like me let alone love me! Maybe it’s asking too much! Friends and family say the right words, but late at night, sometimes I stay awake ruminating endlessly about it—you know, do they really mean it, especially when we’ve had another ugly spat?
Your forever kind of love seems too good to be true, and yet here I am showing up again, hoping we can connect. Because I know deep down that all of life hangs on Your perfect love, and You are the only One Divinely qualified to teach us how to do it better. Please tell me more, Jesus…
Questions for Pondering…
How have I been hurt or helped by human love?
How does God do love better?
