What if SOMEONE told you
I LOVE YOU~
would you
could you
RECEIVE it~
even if you didn't feel so lovable?
What if SOMEONE told you
I LOVE YOU~
would you
could you
BELIEVE it~
even if you didn't believe that you could ever be lovable?
What if SOMEONE told you
I LOVE YOU~
would you
could you
say it back
& really mean it
because the ONE who said it first
really means it?
If HE said it once
HE will say it again
& HE will keep saying it
because HE goes beyond just saying it
because~
"You, LORD, are forgiving &good, abounding in love to all who call to YOU" (Psalm 86:5).
Because
HIS LOVE is like no other~
"But YOU, O LORD are a GOD merciful & gracious, s
low to anger & abounding in steadfast love & faithfulness" (Psalm 86:15)
So if HE is always saying I LOVE YOU & always showing I LOVE YOU
to you & to I
then why don't we say I LOVE YOU to HIM
&
"Give thanks to the GOD of heaven, for HIS steadfast love endures forever" (Psalm 136:26)
because HE goes beyond just saying it
because HIS LOVE
does LOVE us
especially when we aren't acting very lovable~
"But GOD, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which HE loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with CHRIST-
by grace you have been saved" (Ephesians 2:4-5).
So let's RECEIVE & BELIEVE
HIS I LOVE YOU
Once & for all~
"Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for HE who promised is faithful"
(Hebrews 10:23)
because HE never stops saying
I LOVE YOU
because HIS LOVE is a
RECKLESS LOVE~
