BEAUTIFUL HEART

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law (Galatians 5:22-23 NKJV). The above verse speaks of the beauty that God has put into His children’s hearts. Yet it is hard for me to believe this, since I still sin. When I took this to the Lord, He said that it was His pleasure to make me His child (see Ephesians 1:5), and He wants me! He said that I am His bride, and He chose me. He said that He will be with me forever, not just in the next life but also in this earthly life right now. Beloved believer, this is how He feels about all of us. He delights in us (Isaiah 62:4)! By the way, it’s interesting to note how the Lord doesn’t speak to my mind but to my heart. He knows that my mind knows and accepts the truth; it’s my heart that gets plagued by the lies, and Jesus dispels those lies with His love.

  1. Sandra,
    I agree that you are His Beloved, treasured possesion, and His daughter. I believe there is so much in the depth of our identity and I am so glad God continues to give you revelation. Say hi to Jeff and your family.
    Blessings,
    Bret
