HE NEVER STOPS LOVING US
“And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.”
Luke 22:61-62
Peter meant it when he said to the Lord he would go into prison and to death for Him. He fully intended to follow through on what he pledged. He failed to live up to it in the moment though.
You and I have often failed as well. We didn’t plan to fail, but we did. This brings conviction, disappointment, and tears. However, what we learn through these experiences is :
Jesus knows us better than we know ourselves,
He is sovereign,
and HE NEVER STOPS LOVING US.
Do you believe there is nothing you can do to cause Him to love you more or less? I hope so because it’s a fictional thought to think we have to earn His love or that we can lose His love. Satan wants us to think God has cut off His love to us when we fail, but that will never be true. The Bible says “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”
This is an uplifting truth and it’s life changing. We begin to live differently as a result of discovering God will never love us more or less than he does this very moment.
HE NEVER STOPS LOVING US
