What is love?

"Divine love tender and self-sacrificing and devoted, and glad to bear and forbare, and suffer, and eager to lavish its best gifts and all blessings upon the object of its love. Put together all the tenderest love you know .... the deepest 'love' you have ever felt, and the strongest that has ever been poured out upon you, and heap it all up ... and you will begin to perhaps have some faint glimpses of the love and grace of God." The Christian's Secret of a Happy Life. Hannah Whitall Smith

Sometimes in our journey called life, we focus on the circumstances that we would not have chosen -the broken heart, the grief, the dashed hopes. We spend so much time looking back, that we lose sight of the fact that God's love is all encompassing and unconditional.
Jesus told us that unless we become as little children, we cannot enter the kingdom of heaven.
It is my hope that the following clip will bring you back to the simplicity of God's love.

You Are So Beautiful

When the Father looks at you, He sees His beautiful child.
When our heart is broken through abuse, betrayal and abandonment, our mirror is like one from the carnival. What you see does not reflect God's reality.
Your Father loves you. He always has. He always will. There is nothing that you can do to change His mind.
Yes, you can run away. Yes, you can disappoint Him, but not surprise Him. He wants only the best for you.
I am adding a video that I would love for you to listen to. For I believe it is what He would sing to you if you would be still enough to listen.
