how must God feel.....



God created us in His image. He loves us unconditionally to the point of sending His son to die on the cross for our sins.

How must God feel....

Most of us have felt loved in our lives. Love of a friend or spouse, the love of our parents or hopefully one at least. The love of our grandparents or nieces and nephews or a boy/girl friend. Most of us have felt love for another as well most likely one listed above.

How must God feel....

We all know that feeling when our heart aches to be near someone. When you long to hear their voice, see the smile on their face and even stare into those beautiful eyes. To play a game of cards, toss a frisbee or watch a sunset together.

How must God feel....




Most of us at one time or another have felt like we would do anything for someone. We'd get a haircut, shave or even move across the country maybe even to the other side of the world for that certain someone. Like you'd walk 500 miles just to see them or swim an ocean just to give them a hug. We'll go on a diet or start exercising more just to try and be who they want.

How must God feel....

What would you do? How would you feel? If the one who was fully meant to be with you and for you set you aside for something else. The one you know to be your soul-mate left you for greener grass.

How must God feel....

We are that one. Created by God to be with Him. Without question the one He longs to be with. He wants to hear your voice and for you to hear His. Do you listen? Do you hear? He loves us more than we are capable of understanding and what.... we offer Him a little time each morning and Sunday before the games start?

How would you feel? Not that any of us is even close to understanding His love or perspective, but ponder it with me if you will.

How must God feel to be rejected by those He created and loves? Whom He has known from before time and set aside His love for each of us. His patience never ending His sadness...is it ever growing? Caused by our continued rebellion, discarding Him like just another thing to do? Or someone that we know will be there, IF we need Him?

How must God feel....



Oh that we would know His love lavished upon us daily. If we knew just a bit of how He loves us, would we change? Would we step out and begin letting Him transform us to who He would have us be? He does love us, he loves you. Do you trust Him? Will you trust Him? Will you walk and talk with Him on the good days and bad? Will you let Him be your all so that He can show you His all for you?

Lord that I would be your servant, child, target of affection and recipient of your grace and mercy. Show me more of you and draw me near Lord God change me from the inside that I may glorify your name. That the Name of Jesus the Christ would be my constant companion and visible in glory to those around me and each of us.
