140. He Loves You More Than You Know!

We’ve heard it before, maybe many times…God loves you! For many of us, we grew up singing the song, “Jesus loves me!” and we were so excited…which we should be! I mean praise God for His love. But Just because we’ve heard it, just because we’ve sang the song a million times, doesn’t mean that we really know it. It doesn’t mean that we really understand it. And it doesn’t mean that we actually believe that God loves us. 

I didn’t grow up in a Christian home. My dad was physically, mentally, and verbally abusive. I did go to Vacation Bible School in the summertime, and I heard all about God’s love, but for me, there was a disconnect. I couldn’t understand what love was, because I never actually saw love. I was never actually told by either of my parents that they loved me. I didn’t receive hugs. I didn’t feel loved at all. I didn’t feel accepted. I often felt like I was a mistake, that I was here by accident. 

You might be listening to this feeling the same way. On the outside, you pretend to have it all together, but on the inside you’re falling apart. Maybe your story isn’t as crazy as mine or maybe your story is crazier. No matter where you feel like you’re at, you’ve been asking yourself, what’s the point of being here?

Or maybe you aren’t, which I pray is the case, but I can almost guarantee someone you’re close to is feeling this way. 

God loves you so much more than you even realize. This is not the Sunday-school Jesus loves you kind of love…this love is so real. It’s a love that’s not based on condition. If you mess up, He isn’t going to love you any less than He already loves you. He loves you…period!
