Beloved
How many times did I sing the "Jesus Loves Me" song? Probably about a million times. That simply song is burned into my memory so fiercely it would take a brain wash to erase it. So why is it that I can so easily forget the simple truth of the song? I'm slowly making my way through the book by Brennan Manning, and he mentioned it today...Jesus loves me, this i know, for the bible tells me so.
John Eagan said toady in the book that you should, "define yourself as one beloved by God...let it become the most important thing in your life." How true is that? How many of us describe ourselves as beloved? By anyone, let alone God? I know that it's not the first thing on my list- even though it should be.
Just a thought...I need that to stick in my head- that I am Beloved by the God of the Universe! How amazing is that? How much would my attitude change if I believed and owned that? Amazing...
