This blog is meant to encourage and to remind anyone about the unconditional love that our Abba Father in heaven has for us. The things you see here, may they be expressed by my own writings and drawings, or by articles and words from different preachers, are only of one purpose: to remind you, beloved, that you are precious and deeply loved in the eyes of the Everlasting God, and that it is His desire to make you whole again in His Son Jesus Christ.I firmly believe that He wants you to know that. He has done everything for you.
sincerely, a beloved of Christ Jesus

Not even your scars, your regrets, your cuts, your depression, your doubts, your mistakes, your sins, your deepest and darkest secrets, your opinion about yourself, your sadness, your anger, your jealousy, your past, your present or your future can ever separate you from God’s perfect love for you, beloved. You are loved, period.
Whatever it is that has been taken away from you, God’s gonna restore it, beloved. He’s gonna restore it to a hundredfold— more than what you lost.
God loves communicating with us, beloved. He wants you to trust Him and relate to Him just like He’s your real friend. He’s also a Person, beloved. Though you cannot see Him, you can talk to Him. You can sing to Him, no matter how your voice sounds to other people. He loves you so much. He wants you to draw nearer to Him simply because He is near and His arms are open to you.
I really hope that we don’t forget this relationship we have with Him in the midst of the things we’re doing for Him. Truth be told, we can only be at our best when we rest in Him, and receive from Him, not by trying to be in our best on our own. We have a Father who wants us to draw from Himself. Don’t forget that.
God says in His Word that you are beautiful, you are accepted, you are loved, and you are blessed in all things in the Beloved. What Jesus said to the woman caught in adultery, He says to you; He doesn’t condemn you. Like what He did to her, He does to you; He protects you from your accusers. What He said to Zaccheus, He says to you; even though you’re undeserving and even though people will murmur about how scandalous it seems, He call out to you by your name, and asks to dine and stay with you.
Beloved, I do believe that God’s goodness is incomprehensible. We can’t at times understand it. Let’s believe Him. He has a good opinion about you because of Jesus, and He will keep that always. You don’t have to live in the shadows, hiding in your shame. Jesus beckons you, because He is ready to exchange your identity with His. You just have to take it. You may think it’s hard, but no. He will help you walk in that identity. Just trust Him.
God wants you to be Christ-occupied. Not self-occupied, not ministry-occupied, not money-occupied, not family-occupied, or anything else. Just Christ-occupied, and everything else will follow.
| Me: | I'm a sinner, I'm unholy, I'm unworthy, I always do this so I am like this, and I'm a failure at that-- |
| God: | No, child. You're not those. When you accepted Christ, you were born again. You are a new creation. Your identity comes is Him, and not by what you do, what other people think, or what society dictates. You've been made new. |
God will always love you. He knows what you did today, and He knows what you’re gonna do later, tomorrow, next week, next month, next year, and the years after that. I want you to know that whatever that thing is that you’re gonna do, God still loves you the same. He will love you more than you will ever dare expect, and it’s never gonna change. It’s never gonna fail.
Sudden realization: I know that God will fulfill His children’s dreams and bring each of them to high places of influence where they can shine His glory and demonstrate His power. All these will happen, though, but nothing will ever satisfy us but His love and Him all in all. I just thank Him for being with each one of us through and through. ♥
