How to Keep Yourself in God’s Love

How to Keep Yourself in God’s Love

Do you know how to keep yourself in God’s love? This is an important question because only in his love do we feel safe and secure, happy and blessed. And his love is the rightful and most joyful place for all his children. Hence we need to know how to stay there. Only when we remember God’s goodness, do we dare to wait for God. The letter of Jude guides us this way: But you, dear friends, by building yourselves…

You are invited into God’s Love

You are invited into God’s Love

Have you ever wondered how on earth can God love you as much as he loves Jesus? This used to puzzle me but I have lately learned something beautiful about God’s love. You see, God does not love us with different love than he loves Jesus. Instead, we are invited into God’s love. Do you see the difference? God the Father loves God the Son and God the Spirit and vice versa. Their mutual love creates a space for us…

Be and Live Like Love

Be and Live Like Love

Valentine’s Day is approaching, so there is a lot of talk of love these days. That’s fine but so often we forget the most important love of all. So I enjoyed Bob Goff’s tweet the other day “Jesus didn’t tell us to become religious. He told us to be like Him, and He was love.” What a relief we don’t need to be religious. Instead, we are told to be like God, and he is love. So we need to…

You Are Wildly Loved

You Are Wildly Loved

Life is hard. And it gets even harder when we believe lies that keep us down. Mary DeMuth exposes ten lies and shares ten truths in her latest book Stop Living Small: Ten Truths Toward Your Significant Life. This post will tackle the first lie: you do not deserve love by showing how you are wildly loved instead. You might think you don’t deserve love and all those wonderful Bible passages of God’s love do not apply to you. But you…

God Wants to Bless You

God Wants to Bless You

Do you need a reminder of God’s goodwill toward you (and mankind)? Keep on reading! The Bible is full of good news but today I want to share some verses from the third chapter of the Acts. It proclaims God wants to bless you. And it reminds us of what a gift faith really is. And how faith truly is all about grace. You see, even all the good we ever do is empowered by grace and God’s goodness. Just…

That’s God’s Love for You

That’s God’s Love for You

Do you believe God loves you no matter what you do or leave undone? Good for you. Do you believe this also in dark times? You see, it’s easy to believe God is good and he loves you when things are going well for you. But when tough times arrive, do you still think you’re the apple of God’s eye? Because that’s God’s love for you. With the words of Henri Nouwen “Many people don’t think they are loved, or…

Worthy of God’s Love

Worthy of God’s Love

Because you’re worth it, says a cosmetic company to urge you to buy their products. It is a clever advertisement as it targets our longing to be worthy somehow. I hate to break it to you but there’s no such a product that could ever make you feel worthy. But I do know someone who can do it. Jesus thinks you’re to die for. You’re worthy of God’s love. There isn’t higher praise than that. But because of his great…

Sacrificial Love

Sacrificial Love

Good Friday always leaves me in awe. I’m in awe of God’s patient love. And how far he was willing to go in order to save us, to unite us with him. The crucifixion did not form a pretty picture for sure. Yet it is the most beautiful picture of sacrificial love. For us. For free. It does not make sense to us to get such an amazing gift – salvation and eternal life – for free yet that’s how…

Experience God’s Love

Do you yearn for love? Just know that you are already deeply loved by God. Actually, he is crazy in love with you. You might know all this in your head but it is time to experience God’s love in your heart. Because only when you’re filled to the brim with God’s amazing love, you are free of forcing love to happen or settling for something that is not real love. Okay, you say. How do we experience God’s love?…

God Loves You

God Loves You

Do you know deep down in your soul that God loves you? I hope so. Because that’s the truth. No matter what you’ve done or left undone, God’s love does not waver. It’s not about you, it’s about who God is. What a relief! This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and…
