You are so loved

 

"But you, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness." - Psalm 86:15



I just got back from my second Creative Worship retreat in beautiful Savannah, Georgia and my heart is overflowing! What a wonderful weekend with friends in Gods Word - painting and creating to my heart's content. 💜

My blog post today is a short one and just a quick reminder of this simple fact:

You are so loved.

You are so loved by the God of the universe, the One Who created you, Who knows everything about you and loves you just the same. I think we need that reminder every now and then, right? That we are loved, cherished, and adored by our Heavenly Father. 

Let me hear in the morning of your steadfast love, for in you I trust. Make me know the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul. 
Psalm 143:8

So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him. 
1 John 4:16

We love because He first loved us. 
1 John 4:19

For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things presetnt nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord. 
Romans 8:38-39

Yes, my friend, you are so deeply loved.



I created this little insert for a Loved Bible that slowly working on. It'll be a reminder to the recipient that she is loved by the One who made her. I trust it is a reminder for you as well. 

I stamped the beautiful Encouraging Peonies stamp set on cardstock paper, then colored in the flowers with my alcohol markers and fussy cut them out. I then attached the flower to some leftover background paper that was already pre-stamped using the Delightfully Delicate background stamp, stamped the "You are so loved." caption and taped it in my Bible. Very easy, but I think the finished card is beautiful. 😍

I hope you remember God's love for you as you go about your week this week. 

Much love in Christ, 
Janelle
