{Entièrement connu et entièrement aimé}

Entièrement connu et entièrement aimé: Fully Known and FULLY loved.

that's right, FULLY LOVED. Did you know that you are fully loved? loved beyond measure? loved beyond imagination?! YEP! God is a God of love and he loves YOU! Let me break it down for ya. we are people, we have feelings (no matter how many times we wish we didn't have them) and feeling worthless, unloved, and unwanted stinks, hard core. we feel this way a lot of the times because as children of God we lose sight at times of what we should be focusing on. Christ. we feel unloved because of the things that once loved us, don't love us anymore. we feel unwanted because some one the things we were wanted by, don't want us anymore. we feel worthless because something we found worth in, didn't see fit for you to be worth it anymore. THESE THINGS HAPPEN. you are not alone. everything that you are feeling, HALLELUJAH, i have been there. we pay attention to these things, even though they hurt us when they let go, because they are physical things that we can interact with. they are feelings that we choose to (intentional or not) pay more attention to. these things break you, because they are OF THE WORLD. this world is a dark and nasty place. we are supposed to be set apart! sooooooooo WHY are we turning to physical things for love? why are we turning to idols to find worth in? WHY are we letting ourselves believe we are actually worth what we are settling for here on earth?! the things of this earth will grow strangely dim IN THE LIGHT OF HIS GLORY AND GRACE.

Let me tell you what Christ says about this. YOU ARE LOVED. THAT'S IT. NO QUESTION. I don't know about y'all but WOW. being told that i am fully know and fully loved by the LORD?! how does that not make you want to drop to your knees and worship. it is in Christ we need to find our identity, worth, love, and value. you are worth more than jewels and precious gold. YOU WERE WORTH DYING ON THE CROSS FOR and i know we all know we absolutely do not deserve that. Christ dying on the cross for us was an act of love. guess who for? YOU AND ME! if that doesn't show you just how loved you are i don't know what else will! you were worth dying for, you are worth knowing, you are worth more than jewels and precious gold, YOU ARE COMPLETELY LOVED!!!!!!

Bottom line is, i want you and everyone around you to know just how loved you really are, especially on the days you feel absolutely unlovable. yeah, your people around you may have those days where they don't love you, but those days are few and those feelings are temporary. one person who will love you no matter the SIN, TIME, OR DAY is God. trust in him to find the love you want to find. trust in him to find the worth you want to find. trust in hi to hold you to the highest value that you absolutely are. Oh, and in the midst of finding the love of God, share the love of God with others. <3
