Comfort for your soul when emotions pull you down.
You are loved.
You are loved when you are fearful and anxious. When you are afraid I will let you down, you are loved. You are loved when sadness makes the days feel dark and the problems seem unsolvable.
You are loved when you’re unhappy with yourself, wishing you could get your act together. You are loved when you fail, when your work is ineffective or unnoticed. You are loved when others misunderstand or find fault.
You are loved when you don’t meet expectations. You’re loved when you could do better, when you make excuses, or stuff the hurts down deep.
You’re loved when you are too much or too little. When you retreat into your shell, I see your heart. You are loved when you are too tolerant, impulsive, or resentful.
I love you and I don’t condemn you. I came that you might have abundant life in the midst of all of life, the good and the hard. My grace is enough for you on your worst day, in your messiest moment.
Let your heart and your emotions settle into Me. I will not let you down. I am strength for your soul.
I am El Roi, the God who sees and knows. I know your deepest needs…
You are loved.

Thank you, Ginger – this is wonderfully reassuring. I had an amazing opportunity to experience this message on a retreat last weekend. Your words, peaceful and calming as always, cement home the message: God loves me, no matter what…and He always will. Blessings!
Emmaus is an amazing experience. I’m so glad you were able to attend. Blessings friend.
