TO KNOW AND BE KNOWN

SO THAT WE WHO FIRST HOPED IN CHRIST [WHO FIRST PUT OUR CONFIDENCE IN HIM HAVE BEEN DESTINED AND APPOINTED TO] LIVE FOR THE PRAISE OF HIS GLORY. Ephesians 1:12

My friend's Dad reminded me tonight how much God loves us. No matter what. His love is big. He loves us despite all else. He loves us regardless of failings. He loves us when we are having a hard time loving ourselves.

Your love is redeeming, freeing, joyful and I am so rich indeed!
That you would answer me so faithfully, visiting me in the night with Your truth and unchanging glory. My eyes are fixed upon You ---- and do not dare to move.
Every fear is fading as I behold the Beauty of Love.
I will be still and quiet and wait as You redefine all I have known.
