IN CHRIST, EVERYDAY IS VALENTINES DAY
To you my dearest beloved
My heart’s desire is that you rest in me. The heavenly promises I have made to you are designed to give you peace, even in the most violent of storms.
Sometimes you plead with me for a circumstance to change. You ask again and again that it be taken away. My heart longs for you to see more fully how my grace is sufficient for you, even in this.
For my power is made perfect in the midst of your weakness.
But to rest in me takes work. It’s not the kind of work you’re used to but a very different kind of work. I’m asking you to dig deeper into all that I’ve done for you on the cross so that you can more fully celebrate it, even when outwardly there seems only cause for pain.
Through my finished work, I have made you clean and close to me, and you can come boldly and speak freely in my presence, relaxing in and with me at any time.My dear,I would have you keep in mind that nothing can ever separate you from my love,not even sin.We are inseparable.
My love,I would like you to also understand that disease,poverty,loss stress and heart break are not from heaven.Instead the plans I have for you are to prosper and promote you and not to harm or hurt you.I will ensure that no plan of the enemy triumphs over you and that your enemies will wish they never attacked you in the first place.
Therefore my bride,do not let fear grip your heart or worry overcome your soul for I have hidden you in my secret place where I watch over you day and night.
I promise to always be on your side,never to leave you,get angry with you or remind you of your sins.Instead,I will pick you up when you fall,guide you when you get lost and remind you that your righteousness is in me.
I long for you to awaken to the goodness of my grace. As you discover the heights and depths of my love for you, you will experience relationship with me like you never imagined possible.
I really love you, and my heart longs for you to know me as I truly am.
Believe me when I say that I will NEVER stop loving you,Yes,even to the end of time.You will always be mine and I will always be yours.
Jesus
