Today’s Thought
What a mighty, loving God we serve! We definitely cannot live without Him.
It is astounding to me that He chooses not to live without us. He will not abandon us, even when we are less than loveable. We are precious in His sight. When we stray, He is eagerly waiting for us to come back. When we do, there is joy unspeakable in Heaven. Praise God!!
