I have been a committed Christian for 13 years now and God has never failed to amaze me with His goodness, mercy and grace.
I have to confess that at times I fall so far short of what I would like to be for Him. I wonder at times what He thinks of me... His Word says that I am loved by Him and that my name is carved into the palm of His hand. Isn't that amazing?
I am currently going through an extremely traumatic time in my personal life. I have questioned Him so much. I have been angry at Him so much and yet, He has been faithful and just. His love for me knows no bounds... I have found over the years that journalling my thoughts and His thoughts toward me (found in His word) have caused me to have a vital resource to look back on. Often He ahs spoken to me on a subject before and being typically human...I have failed to pay attention. Thus - the lesson comes around again. And again. And again if I am not careful!
Know this...God loves you as you are! You are the most precious child to Him! We all are - His love for us is something that we could never, ever fathom.
GO live life for Him!

Great to see you getting started on this, Liezel. Those of us up here in Sweden miss your warm presence and insightful perspective, all from experience, about who God is and how we can live life in light of His love. I'll look forward to reading your blog and pass on this info to the homegroup.

Hi Liesel
I found the link to your blogspot on Sharon's blog. (I'm the other link on her site!) and I'm glad I did! It's awesome to know that as Christians, we are all part of God's family, and even though we may never have the opportunity to meet on this little planet, there's a whole eternity ahead in the place He is preparing for us for us to meet and get to know each other! I'll be back to read your blog! :o) Welcome to the blogging world!
