A dear friend sent this to me today and it was exactly what I needed.. God has a way of working just how and when you need Him. Be encouraged today.
I want to encourage and challenge you to do something today, as well as the rest of this week. Isaiah 43 says that we are REDEEMED–beautiful in Him and that we are HIS. He has called YOU by NAME. 2 Cor 5 says that we have been made into a NEW CREATION and that we are the Lord’s righteousness. And Romans 8 says there is NO MORE condemnation. Oh, the beauty of liberation. i want you to allow the Lord to let only Him satisfy you completely. He wants all of you in exchange for all of Him. Anything you find beautiful–sunsets, sunrises, the waves of the ocean, the stars that serve no purpose but to be stared at in awe, the many flowers you see on the side of the road when driving, and the color the Lord put into this world–THAT is how Christ is romancing your heart. These things weren’t necessary by any means, but He wanted to remind us that we are His bride and His beloved. 🙂 Hang tight, Amanda. Every day is a new day…ah, I love that. 🙂 If you ever need to talk, it’s what the Body is here for–i’m only a phone call or a message away! I’ll be praying for strength and wisdom and clarity. Not sure why, but it’s what Jesus is telling me to do.
