Living Loved (and a give-away!)

 Happy Valentines Day! I hope you know just how much…

You are LOVED

Welcome online study sisters and new friends hopping over from my Encouragement for Today devotion. I’m so glad you are here! In my devotion, Because You are His, I talk about the love of a mom watching over her children – and how God says He watches over us just like that. Not only does He watch over us – HE DELIGHTS IN US!!{ Zeph. 3:17}

And with His love, He calms our concerns, quiets our fears  and speak promises of assurance to our hearts! Scripture says He sings over us, too. I have a feeling the song He sings over you today is written just for YOU, describing the beautiful woman He’s created you to be, while gently leading your heart to know and rely on His love more and more each day.

Oh how I want to know and rely on His love…His unconditional, unfailing, patient and kind Love. How about you? In this short video m message today, I  share one of the most important truths I’ve ever learned about God’s love. I’d love to share it with you. Maybe we can connect over lunch or coffee right here at my kitchen table. 🙂

“Message Notes” are 1to download in a PDF format here or in a MSWord doc here.

__________________________________________

Let these truths sink into your heart today…

You are CHOSEN. You are LOVED. You are ACCEPTED.

(Download His Promises and print them for keeps!?)

Although God may not send His love covered in chocolate or delivered in satin covered boxes, let’s remember today how He left Himself as a Love letter nailed to the cross of Calvary, declaring the depth of HIS unfailing love for us – forever! I pray that you will live in HIS love today today…bringing the empty well of your heart to Jesus –  so He can fill it!

  3. After years of struggling to accept the unconditional love of Jesus, I realize that I cannot expect my daughters to accept His love and fulfill his promises in their lives if they don’t see it modeled for them daily. Although it is a daily struggling to listen to God’s word over the voices of the world, i cam committed to doing just that. Thank you for your insight, your resources and your willingness to be used by God….it is a blessing to many 🙂

  4. I am so thankful for the gift of salvation through Christ and the grace that God gives me each day. It’s so refreshing to know that when I struggle to feel I am making a difference as a wife and mother, where I feel less than adequate in terms of physical beauty, or when I feel that the things I do are not enough – – HE says I AM. He says “it’s okay,” “you’re beautiful to me,” and “you ARE making a difference.” Thank you for the reminder that God is the one we should look to for our affirmation. Thank you for pointing us back to the cross each day through your emails, books, blogs and radio messages. You ministry is truly a blessing.

  6. Hi Renee ~
    When I first became a Christian, almost 15 years ago now, I grabbed onto the Lord and held on for dear life. I drank in immediately that He loved me. I had spent most of my life not being loved, so to know that He loved me was so very vital to me. Throughout these past 15 years, I have come to know Him much better and understand that love.
    Coming to the Lord has definitely been a life saver for me. I have seen such a change in myself, and I know the change could not have come from me.
    Oh, if we could only see how much He loves us; if we could only love the way He does. Someday….
    Happy Valentine’s Day! Judi.

  7. Happy Valentine’s Day to you!! My husband wrote me notes on the mirrors in the bedroom and the bathroom. I love him so much.

  8. Here it is another Valentine’s Day. It is amazing how we get caught up in the commercial trappings of this day. I woke up praying for His peace and love to fill me. God is good…He does provide.

  9. I LOVE how God’s LOVE is filling the airways via the internet!

    I am so blessed & have felt his LOVE through these internet Bible studies.

    With all the evil that is allowed to be posted, I am so blessed smart (in that they know how to do this sort of thing) women & men of God are taking back what is meant for good!

    I KNOW JESUS LOVES ME!

    In his mighty name, carry on with a confident heart!

  10. Praising God for His unconditional love! I don’t have to do a thing to get His attention or earn His love, His love is perfect and doesnt come with conditions or requirements. When I mess up, He loves me anyway. His love is perfect. Fill us today, Sweet Father! I’m learning to totally depend on His love, and asking Him to fill me with it each day.

  12. Renee,

    i just wanted to say thank you for all your thoughts and prayers. Today’s word was just what i needed to hear. Sometimes I have a hard time believing that anyone can love me much less God but he has been confirming his love for me in many different ways these past few weeks. I am thankful for HIs mercy and his love.

    God Bless
    Hazel

  13. Today is Valentine’s Day. Being single is not easy especially on this day when people are celebrating with their love ones.
    I have been struggling with singleness.
    And thank you for your video — Letting God fill your empty space. I watched it last night for the second time and it brings comfort to my soul .
    Thank you for your loving kindness and servanthood.

  14. Renee, I have found out over the years that I’m a visual learner, so I need for you to know how very much I appreciate your added sharing through these video messages. It gives me one more way to absorb all that God wants for me to know. Thank you for being that messenger for me.

  16. Thank you so much for A Confident Heart online bible study. Happy Valentines Day my beautiful friends!!

  18. Am visiting my daughter and we just listened to your message.. The object lesson of the jar was exceptional! We all need to realize that only the Lord Jesus can truly fill our hearts. Hope to use this idea for a class I have for young girls. Also just bought your book yesterday and am looking forward to reading it. Thank you for caring about women!!!

  19. Much enjoyment I have been receiving reading and praying the appointed scriptures each week during this important study.
    This wonderful appointed time and opportunity has been such an enrichment to my heart and my life.
    God is more than I could ever get close to or try to explain AWESOME!!! Bless you all.
    Forever these teachings will be engraved into my heart to share with many. I am delighted!
