The Love of God

Scripture
He that trusteth in the Lord, mercy shall compass him about.
Psalm 32:10 (KJV)

Reflection

To be deeply loved by God is the most stabilizing truth in the universe. Psalm 32:10 declares, "He that trusteth in the Lord, mercy…" and it is meant to settle the soul. Let this truth do something today. Let it loosen the grip of comparison. Let it soften the edges of self-criticism. Let it remind you that your value was never up for negotiation. The God who knows everything about you loves you completely. Stand in that. Walk in that. Speak from that. The love of God is not a feeling to chase but a foundation to live on.

Prayer

Loving God, help me to live as one who is deeply loved. Free me from the need to prove what You have already declared. Amen.

Thought for the Day

How can I rest in being loved before I try to do anything?
