HeartRush

Jesus loved me enough to die a cruel and horrible death on the cross for me. He loves me enough to care for my and guide my footsteps through this world that we are a part of for a short time. He loved me enough to endure torment after torment from His own people, so that I might have life in Him. He loves me enough that He has called me to Him and has prepared a place for me in Heaven. He loves us with a love that we cannot even begin to fathom. A love so strong that no man can pluck us from His hands. A love that we are supposed to strive for here on Earth. A love that we are supposed to show to every person around us. We are His children, and we are called to show His love to our brothers and sisters in Christ as well as those people who are not yet intimate with Him.
I think that we sometimes forget that God loves us all the same. He sent Jesus to this earth to die for all of us. Yeah. Every single one of us. We are all sinners. We are all undeserving pf God's love, but the amazing thing is that no matter how bad we have been, are, or will be God loves us. And every one of us should rejoice in that fact. Because without God's undying, unchanging love for us we would have nothing. We would have Nothing. And on top of that, we would have no hope of ever gaining anything. But because God loves us and sent His son to die for us, we can have everything. AND we get to look forward to ruling and reigning WITH God and Jesus themselves in Heaven one day. We will have mansions and streets of gold. Heaven will be better than any place on Earth could ever hope to be. I can't wait for the day when I will see God's face looking down at me and welcoming me into my eternal home. A place where there are no tears, no illnesses, no pain. A place where my only job will be to praise God for the rest of time. A place where I will be made perfect.
But until I get there, it is my job, and Your job, to spread God's word as far as we possibly can. We are to be lights for Him and we ought to live lives where others can see Christ in us.
That is my only goal worth striving for.

What are you striving for today? Is it oneness with God? If it isn't, you may need to rethink your priorities.

God Bless,
Taylor
