Know You Are Loved

Know You Are Loved

Each day the Lord pours his unfailing love upon me.

Psalm 42:8

Do you believe, really believe, that God loves you? His love is not meant for you only to know about—it is meant for you to experience personally. Meditating on and receiving God’s love is the foundation for how you live, make decisions, and relate to others. If you go through life with confidence that you are loved by God, you can remain secure and joyful—even when circumstances are against you.

As you meditate on and interact with the Scriptures about God’s love for you, be honest with him about your feelings. You may experience numbness, apathy, or resistance. Don’t try to force yourself to feel God’s love this week. God might be making you aware of a resistance to receiving his love.

Remember, it takes a lifetime to really accept and experience God’s one-of-a-kind love for you. This week will simply develop an awareness of how you experience God’s love and will give you tools for opening yourself to more of his love in the future.
