Hello to Everyone,

 

 

 

Many of us come from broken homes and abusive parents; so many too, like myself, no longer have blood-kin. We struggle with the concept that God as our Father can be loving, because all we have ever known from a 'parent' is abuse or/and abandonment. We might read the scriptures of God's love and faithfulness, but deep inside we still wrestle with the truth that God is non-abusive and instead totally loving; what I mean is we just have a hard time accepting and relating--securing/anchoring within our hearts--a parental relationship. Subconsciously, we run from it and doubt that it can exist for us, because we doubt our worthiness to even have such a relationship.

 

May we all praise the Lord Jesus, together and in all unity, right now! For God is so loving and He is not abusive at all. The trials He allows are to draw us closer to Himself; it is not abuse we are experiencing, but love.

The Bible says:

For the Leader. A Psalm of David. O LORD, Thou hast searched me, and known me.
Thou knowest my down-sitting and mine uprising, Thou understandest my thought afar off.
Thou measurest my going about and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.
For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, Thou knowest it altogether.
Thou hast hemmed me in behind and before, and laid Thy hand upon me.
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; too high, I cannot attain unto it.
Whither shall I go from Thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from Thy presence?
If I ascend up into heaven, Thou art there; if I make my bed in the nether-world, behold, Thou art there.
I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;
Even there would Thy hand lead me, and Thy right hand would hold me.
And if I say: 'Surely the darkness shall envelop me, and the light about me shall be night';
Even the darkness is not too dark for Thee, but the night shineth as the day; the darkness is even as the light.
For Thou hast made my reins; Thou hast knit me together in my mother's womb.
I will give thanks unto Thee, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; wonderful are Thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
My frame was not hidden from Thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.
Thine eyes did see mine unformed substance, and in Thy book they were all written - even the days that were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.
How weighty also are Thy thoughts unto me, O God! How great is the sum of them!
If I would count them, they are more in number than the sand; were I to come to the end of them, I would still be with Thee.
[Psalm 139: 1-18]

May these wonderful words heal all doubt and fear of God's love for you; His parental love. You do have a loving Heavenly Father. Rejoice in that. This is my prayer; please make it yours also.

God Bless
Jesus loves you!! Yes He does!
