That is so good,What I love most about God is that He is not distant or remote. he fully understands our emotions: our sadness, our suffering, our joy and happiness.
Jesus told us: "If you've seen me, you've see the Father" (John 14:9) and "The Father and I are one" (John 10:30). Jesus understood our suffering, our pain of being rejected by others and had enormous compassion for sinners, outcasts, the poor and needy.
Our Lord is full of emotion. He loves (Romans 5:8), He grieves (Genesis 6:6), He weeps (John 11:35) and is moved with compassion (Exodus 33:19). He rejoices (Isaiah 62:5), feels joy and sings (Zephaniah 3:17). He is jealous for our souls (Ezekiel 34:14).
Therefore, every person in the world today can have absolute assurance that every part of their being is cherished by our caring, merciful, and compassionate Creator. Like the Father of the prodigal son, Our God is reaching out to us, waiting for us, longing for us to come home so we can be embraced in His loving arms.
It's always great to be an optimist. The one who's glass is overflowing will always be an inspiration and encouragement to others!That is so good,
I came across this today...
The Pessimist says,
My cup is half empty.
The Optimist says
My cup is half full.
The Psalmist says
My cup runneth over...Psalm 23:5
...true...and our cup is overflowing , praise the Lord!It's always great to be an optimist. The one who's glass is overflowing will always be an inspiration and encouragement to others!
That is true!...true...and our cup is overflowing , praise the Lord!
Sounds fun, I can't sleep, but I will try again.That is true!
And it's been such a great day too. Been out walking, had a two course carvery lunch at the Toby, done the finishing touch to an album of music tracks, and doing some late night nattering on CF
