God's love

Your love means more than life to me... ~ Psalm 63:3 (CEV)

I am sure that nothing can separate us from God’s love—not life or death, not angels or spirits, not the present or the future, and not powers above or powers below. Nothing in all creation can separate us from God’s love for us in Christ Jesus our Lord! ~ Romans 8:38–39 (CEV)

Gracious God, there is nothing more important in my life than being loved by you. There is nothing I do -- nothing that anyone does -- nothing in life that happens -- nothing -- absolutely nothing can cause you to love me less. Even when I mess up and make really awful mistakes -- even when I commit the worst sin imaginable -- you still love me. And that amazes me. It drives me to love you back. Sometimes I'm not very good at loving you. My interests in you are often self-centered. I'm either trying to advance myself or get something from you. But I'm trusting that you'll grow me past that. Please continue to remind me of your love so that I can deepen my love for you. Amen.
