Truth

Lately I've been researching & digging into truths about God & truths about what God says about me. Some truths I've learned or really started grabbing ahold of are:

-God is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
-God loves believers.
-We have been chosen in Christ for God.
-God, in His holy, most righteous, most perfect, full of splendor, self...has set is affections on me (us!).
-He asks us to set our affections upon him in the same way.
-If we are fully focused on him our relationship with Him will eclipse everything else in our lives.
-His love will carry us through any hardship.
-Psalm 63:3 says, "Your love is better than life." and I believe that.
-Absolutely nothing compares to Him.
-Our souls were meant to feast on Him.
-He WANTS to satisfy our souls with His unfailing love.
-We were meant & created to thrive on the riches of His love.
-If you ask him to rid us of the lesser gods in our lives, He will not only fill that cup, but overflow it.
-We are tremendously significant to God.
-Loving us was better than sparing Christ's life.......if that one doesn't sink deep I don't know what will.

Your love, O Lord, is better than Life!

"Let all who take refuge in you be glad; let them ever sing for joy! Spread your protection over them, that those who love your name may rejoice in you. For surely, O Lord you bless the righteous; you surround them with your favor as with a shield." Psalm 5:11-12
