Do you feel unworthy?

The LORD God, King of the Universe decided to adopt me! That is incomprehensible! And to beat it all, God wanted to do that and doing it gave him great pleasure. There's no point in trying to get God to love me more. He already does. Now, I want to do things to please him because of all the amazing deeds he has done for me. That's a very different scenario. I'm not unworthy and neither are you. We are deeply loved and valued.

Book Excerpt

Still Small Voice of Love

Ephesians 1:5

GOD decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure.

Beloved: It is beyond my comprehension that You could get great pleasure by having me in Your family—by being in relationship with the likes of me. While I don’t comprehend how this could be, I’m very grateful to You for showing me such love.

Lover: My dearest, precious child, how I wish you could begin to know how deeply I love you—vaster, deeper than the sea. I enjoy these daily times together. I smile when you notice My little reminders to you through the day. When I sing over you in the night, your heart and mind are healed. Keep looking for Me in your day so that our relationships grows.

And the LORD himself, the King of Israel, will live among you! At last your troubles will be over, and you will never again fear disaster. ¹⁶On that day the announcement to Jerusalem will be, “Cheer up, Zion! Don’t be afraid! ¹⁷For the LORD your God is living among you. He is a mighty savior. He will take delight in you with gladness. With his love, he will calm all your fears. He will rejoice over you with joyful songs.”

(Zephaniah 3:15b-17, NLT)

“It seems to me then, and seems to me still, that if God speaks to us at all in the world, if God speaks anywhere, it is into our personal lives that he speaks.” —Fredrick Buechner¹⁶
