Psalm 36:5-6 (MSG)
5 God’s love is meteoric, his loyalty astronomic,
6 His purpose titanic, his verdicts oceanic. Yet in his largeness nothing gets lost; Not a man, not a mouse, slips through the cracks.
God’s Love cannot be measured, and it is abundant and free to all those who just reach out and receive.
I wonder this morning is the Peace of being Loved by the Creator of the Universe filling your innermost being. Do you feel the Love that cannot be explained deep within you? Do you know that God Loves You, God sings over you with Love and He sees where you are and knows all you feel!
He invites you to cling to Him and to just let Him hug you and show you His Love!
Our almost two-year-old grandson will sometimes not want to let you hug Him or cuddle Him or give him a kiss. He wants to get down and do his own thing. And as much as I desire just to cuddle him up he is having no part of it.
Does that describe your walk in this life? Are we so determined to do our own thing we don’t let the Father just show us Love and pour His amazing Peace into us?
Corrie Ten Boom made a statement that I have quoted before but fits beautifully here: “Don’t struggle, snuggle!”.
Please don’t miss what I am trying to say. Picture in your mind yourself in the lap of the huge God of the Universe and you are safe, secure and just snuggling and He is singing over you. What a picture!
Did you know you can walk in the Peace and the inner posture of snuggling and be taking care of the many task of life that you must do each day? As you fulfill your home, work, school, church, and all other duties you can do them better and with ease as you allow the Heavenly Father to cuddle you and sing over you along the way!
Zephaniah 3:17 (KJV)
The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing.
The world we live in would be a much better place if each Christian allowed themselves to be Loved by the Lord God Almighty. What a difference we could make in the lives of those around us as our Peace and contentment flow from us to all those we meet.
I believe that the world’s problems and situations could be solved if each person living understood how much we are Loved by the God of the Universe! It can start with you today as you allow God to Love you and you just snuggle as you walk, run or sprint through your day!
I have a favorite saying that I’m not even sure where it came from, but it speaks to what I am trying to say: “Don’t curse the darkness, Light a Candle!”.
Whatever the question, Jesus is the answer and until we understand just how much God Loves us individually, we cannot show the answer to those all around us.
What steals your Peace? Running late: children slow and lagging: traffic: too much to do in a single day: physical challenges: grouchy boss or coworkers: bills: unfriendly clerk in the store?
When we realize how much we are Loved we can defeat the Peace Stealers. I challenge you today when you feel your Peace leaving as you face certain situations, just begin to imagine yourself snuggling in the arms of Almighty God and His Peace will keep you on a steady course.
I am making up my mind to quit letting the Peace Stealers have any place in my innermost being. My God Loves me and will successfully fight my battles.
How about you? Will you join me in this decision to walk in the Love of God!!
My desire for each of you is the very best God has!!!
