Song of a daughter


God loves me!
Because He is; not because I love Him
(although I do, very much)
He gives me joy in the morning though
sorrow may last for a night
He wipes away my tears and fills my heart with dancing
He uses every incident in my life to demonstrate His love and care
He is present in my heart, my life and all around me

God loves me!
There’s no other statement more powerful!
Why, it’s the very reason for my being!
Tis amazing, that God loves lil ole me
With all of my faults, quirks and complaints
(He does even when my own family can’t stand me)

God loves me!
He gives me gifts, talents, abilities and skills
And only asks that I use them for His glory
He multiplies them when they’re used and
Paradoxically, they’re diminished when they’re not!
Yet, at all times, He is faithful and His promises are yea and amen in Christ Jesus

God loves me!
He watches me grow in Him,
lovingly and gently
He leads me day by day
Only asking that I trust in Him no matter what the world says
He speaks to me in many different ways- His word, my conscience, at church, my family and friends and even through circumstances (All of this goes to show how much love He has for me)
And it’s amazing, isn’t it, that He loves me like this and loves you like that too? That he created all of us –differently and deals as such with us
What a Wonderful God!
