I AM LOVED SO MUCH

This day has brought much and it's only 10 am.

First, to be quite honest, I am fighting off some PMS. You men don't understand, but you women do. Just a bit tight this morning.

Second, I made sure I did a work out this morning. The 30 Day Shred. 20 minutes, I made it through.

Third, it's our 26th wedding anniversary and we get to spend it in the same place we did last year, when we renewed our wedding vows. Awesome celebration that was!

And Fourth, and powerful to me today was in my scripture reading this morning. I am in the book of Judges for my old testament reading. Chapter 2 and 3. This is what came alive for me - numerous times I read "the Israelites did evil in the eyes of the Lord; they forgot the Lord their God and served other gods." Then they were basicly in captivity to the King(s) for years - "But when they cried out to the Lord, he raised up for them a deliverer, ______." They fall so far away from God, they cry out to him in their trouble (which they brought on themselves), and the Lord sends a deliverer to them. This happened many times too - I felt this overwhelming sense of love from God. No matter how I fail he WILL NEVER LEAVE ME. No matter how far I fall down he will just keep coming back to me, and back to me again and again. He does not want to stop pursuing me.

I will not stop calling out to the Lord for help. He will not stop coming after me. His love for me is so huge I cannot even begin to fathom it. Smile big today - you are loved so amazingly much.

Side note - Tim just got back from golfing with the brother pastors and had his best golf game ever. :)
