It’s about God, NOT ME!

Go at LEAST skim through the last post. 

OK my heart is BURSTING with joy right now. I know what the deal is, it's GOD. He's awesome. He's my best friend and He loves me. When I was a kid, I'd tell my mom that I "loved her to pieces and back together again." God loves us more than THAT.

Every day, in every way, without ceasing, He loves me. Even if I am having a bad hair day. He loves me even if I forgot to brush my teeth. God still loves me more than anything, even when I gained 10 pounds and my FAT clothes are getting tight.

God loves me when I am grumpy, when I am happy, when I praise Him and when I don't. Is there any time when He stops loving me? No there is not!!!!

He loved me when I was being awful to my husband, and He still loved me when I got a reality check and became 1000% better wife. God loves me when I complain and gossip at work, and He loves me when I work really hard at being positive and when I manage to let my ears be THE LAST ONES who hear hurtful things.

God loves me when I spend too much money on gadgets and trinkets and clothes. He loves me when I work at the Food Bank and sit with Hospice Patients. God loves me when I don't read the Bible, and He loves me when I haven't been to church for 10 months.

He loves me through my bad attitude and my ADD-like tendencies. God loves me through home improvements, through walking the dogs, and He even loved me at 4 this morning when I sat on the couch and let Rob clean up his dog's vomit.

Maybe Rob didn't like me much then, but God loved me to pieces!

I am on vacation until Monday. Perhaps that is part of the reason I am feeling such joy. But the rest is the realization of WHO I AM in the Lord. All glory honor and praise to Him, my rock and my redeemer.

Praise God! He is so good!

    Yeah, I’m still trying to understand the depth of His love thing…I don’t know if our human brains can comprehend how much He loves us!
