God loves us

Why would you ever complain, O Jacob, or, whine, Israel, saying, "GOD has lost track of me. He doesn't care what happens to me"?
Don't you know anything? 
Haven't you been listening?
GOD doesn't come and go. God lasts.
He's Creator of all you can see or imagine.
He doesn't get tired out, doesn't pause to catch his breath.
And he knows everything, inside and out.
Isaiah 40:27-28 The Message

There is so much to meditate on in this scripture. Here is just a few questions and truths.

Why would we complain?
Have we been listening?
God doesn't come and go.
He's the Creator of all.
He knows everything.

For me today, one that speaks loudly is - God doesn't come and go. God lasts. The everlasting God. He is always there. He's always there for me. He's always there for you. He's always there for everyone He created. And what's more He doesn't get tired out. No, He actually energises us, and gives fresh strength to us.

He energizes those who get tired, gives fresh strength to dropouts. Isaiah 40:29 The Message

We have a God who loves us, and a God who freely gives to us all that we need (not necessarily want).

"This is how much God loved the world: He gave his Son, his one and only Son. And this is why: so that no one need be destroyed; by believing in him, anyone can have a whole and lasting life. John 3:16 The Message

He loves us. God loves you. God loves me.

Today, let's take some time to grow deeper in our understanding of His love for us and ask Him to help us be a more effective vessel of His love for others. 

My beloved friends, let us continue to love each other since love comes from God. Everyone who loves is born of God and experiences a relationship with God. 1 John 4:7 The Message
