"Jesus loves me this I know, for the bible tells me so...."
...for the bible tells me so
not "for I've followed Him flawlessly"
or "for I've been so faithful"
but simply,
for the bible tells me so...
Love's barometer is not set (or upset) by our behavior
He loves you because He loves you because He loves you
not because of "good works which you've done"
not because of anything you've done
(or not done)
but rather because of who you are,
namely,
His
His creation
His chosen
His child...
Jesus loves you this I know,
for the bible tells me so.

"I have loved you with an everlasting love"
-Jeremiah 31:3

L, I love the
beauty woven
in the simple
truth of your

And I want to
thank you for
the lovely ones

They really meant
so much to me!

he loves you he loves you he loves you he loves you he loves you he loves you......you get the drift:)
i think his tenderness over his creation is something we just can't comprehend while our feet are on this dirt and clay. letting him love us is worship, indeed:)
joy to you in your letting,
Jennifer
