God doesn’t need to be explained, He needs to
be lauded. He needs to be proclaimed and
worshiped. He needs people who really
know Him and will shout out who He really is, and what He’s really like. How we perceive our Father, how we think
about Him, is the single most important aspect of our spiritual journey; what
He is to us and who He wants to be for us.
Our image of God will drive every single part of our life and determine
the quality of our “light” to the world.
We’re shaped, emotionally and spiritually, by the image of God we carry
in our hearts and minds. He loves
us. He enjoys us. He is deeply personal with us, and wants us
to be confident in Him and in His love for us.
Ask yourself this question: Do you believe God is mostly sad, mostly mad
or mostly glad? Glad is the correct
answer, for our God is a happy God
who delights in His children. He never
has delusions about us because He never had any illusions to begin with. He knows we are dirt, remember He made us. God says of Himself that He is merciful,
gracious, longsuffering, and abounding in goodness and truth (Ex. 34:6). God not only delights in us, He sings over
us, thinks about us constantly, collects our tears in a bottle, holds us in His
hand and lights our pathway through this world, just to name a few of the good
things God does for us. But more than
all this it is His unsearchable, unfathomable love that should captivate
us. He loves us with a perfect love... an
everlasting love... a relentless love... an unquenchable, insatiable,
immeasurable, inexhaustible, irrepressible, irrational, unshakable, inescapable,
unmovable, constantly constant unchanging love.
His love demonstrated on the cross
should forever capture our hearts and make us totally His - love slaves of the
most high El Shaddahi.
THE GOD
OF INEXHAUSTIBLE LOVE
