THE LOVE OF GOD= IS ALIVE=IS HEALTHY= AND IS ETERNAL Did you ever stop And wonder IF God Ever gets angry at you? LIKE when you make The same stupid mistakes Over and over again-like me- For the umpteenth time Or you commit A really serious sin I don't know for sure- BUT if he does- I know it doesn't last long “For his anger- LASTS but a moment A lifetime-his GOOD WILL” Psalm 30:6 HIS LOVE for us Lasts a lifetime- His lifetime-not our earthly timetable For his love-for us- IS ETERNAL “Your word-Lord-is ETERNAL- it stands firm in the heavens” Psalm 110:89 “For God So LOVED the world That he gave his ONE And only Son That whoever BELIEVES in him Shall NOT perish But have ETERNAL LIFE” John 3:16 What great news-that is- For us-this Lent His anger with us Is short While his love for us LASTS forever and ever I really don't know How much anger God really Has for us anymore I think he MAY get More disappointed in us That we have let him down That is how I get with people These days I don't get too mad anymore- But I do get disappointed and hurt- WHEN they let me down Over and over again- And they don't even seem to care But I do KNOW his love for us Is healthy and ALIVE- In addition to being eternal His love FLOWS Into our lives-UNCONDITIONALLY “In the same way Count yourselves Dead to sin And ALIVE to God In Christ Jesus” Romans 6:11 “For the WORD of God- Is ALIVE and active Sharper than Any double-edged sword It penetrates- Even to dividing- Soul and spirit-joints and marrow It judges the thoughts and attitudes Of the heart” Hebrews 4:12 So spend some time This LENT Sitting and thinking about- THE DIVINE FAVOR- THE DIVINE LOVE- The Lord has for you Think of GOD'S LOVING KINDNESSES- In your life Take a few moments- And REFLECT on it today Don't worry about God's anger- For if he has any for you- It is already gone DWELL in the TRUTH Of God's love for you It is UNCONDITIONAL- And lasts ETERNALLY How lucky are we To be CREATURES OF GOD!
