because God loved me first 🫶🥰

2/21 Edited to

... Read moreReflecting on the profound impact of God’s love in my life has been incredibly uplifting. The scripture verses mentioned, like John 15:12—"This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you"—remind me that God’s love is not only personal but also a call to community and compassion. Whenever I meditate on Romans 8:28, which speaks of all things working together for good for those who love God, I feel reassured that every challenge or change I face has a divine purpose. I relate deeply to the feeling of being "a new creation," a transformation that comes from accepting God’s love and grace. This renewal isn’t just about changing habits but about embracing an inner purpose and peace that radiate outward. It truly feels like floating, as the OCR content mentioned—being lifted by a force greater than ourselves. Moreover, verses like Matthew 22:14, “For many are invited, but few are chosen,” encourage me to stay faithful and purposeful, knowing that my relationship with God is unique and meaningful. This journey strengthens my faith, gives me hope, and motivates me to live a life full of love, patience, and kindness. Sharing these reflections helps me connect with others who might also feel lost or searching for purpose. God’s love is indeed the favorite form of loving—ever present, unwavering, and empowering. Embracing it has been the cornerstone of my spiritual journey and continues to inspire every step I take.

Stop Waiting To Be Loved Right
“Stop Waiting to Be Loved Right” Life will pass you by while you sit around hoping someone will finally become the person you need them to be. You should not have to beg to be seen. You should not have to beg to be heard. You should not have to beg for love, effort, peace, or consistency.

God loved me when I didn’t love myself.
I think one of the hardest things to comprehend about God’s love is that He NEVER stops loving us. Even when we struggle to have faith in Him, or when we don’t love ourselves. It’s a love truly that is so limitless and I’m so thankful that He loves me even when I struggle to follow Him or understan
