- Isaiah 43:2 (paraphrased) says...
There is no need to be afraid because I've redeemed you. I've called your name- I've called you MINE. When you feel overwhelmed, I am there with you. When you're in rough waters, you will not go down. — My child, that's how much you mean to me! That's how much I love you! I'd sell off the whole world to get you back, trade the creation JUST FOR YOU.
Oh, I feel like too often we forget how vast God's love is. We (including myself) get so caught up in life, we get so caught up in all of our daily responsibilities- life just seems to take over. I know so often I feel so bogged down and overwhelmed with life, I just feel like giving up! - but I love how God reminds us that HE IS WITH US in this verse, He tells us that we will not go down if we simply trust Him and keep our hope in Him. He chose us, we are HIS- every part of who we are belongs to Him. Just for us he gave everything- for us God gave His son to be the ultimate sacrifice, for us as sinners! He gave His son up for a world that was full of sin and gunk- this is just mind boggling for me, how deep the father's love for us must be for Him to give up His everything for a world that walks around taking it for granted every day. So today be reminded of just how much He really does love you. He would trade the world JUST FOR YOU- You are here not by chance, but by God's calling. He brought you here for a specific purpose and reason, don't loose hope.
God be our dependable love today, give us the strength we need to get through our busy lives. Help us to never forget that incredible gift that you gave- your everything so that we could be free. We love you Lord, thank you for your faithfullness in our lives. Amen.
Until Next Time-
