if i’m totally smug and assured/proud of that, i could have too simplistic an outlook to who You are…
if i’m hesitant, and unsure, not really daring to believe, i have little faith in the love that You embody…
so help me strike a balance dear God… not to have a simplistic view that You love me, full stop… not to overlook the fact that You take care of billions and trillions of people’s cares and woes and that i’m actually being loved by a really big God!! not to mention, that from my human perspective, i’d be tempted to think that You were too busy for me… but then again, this would lead to the other extreme of not realising the breadth and depth of Your love… the unfailing and boundless love that all the psalms and the whole Bible speak of…
what should my response be then?… to love you back… to love you because you first loved us (1 jhn 4:19), and gave Your Son to die on the cross for me… now that makes You both a personal and an amazingly awesome God to me :)
