Still the Same

This post on Radical Womanhood really ministered to me today.

These three lines really stood out to me:
"Father, don't ever let me look at my life and question Your love for me. Your love for me was settled on the cross. That has never changed and will never change."

No matter what your circumstances are, God's love never changes. The cross, the death of Jesus Christ, and His resurrection are God's final, total, and complete expression that He loves you. Never allow your heart to question God's love.

His triumph does not mean our trials are over in this life, but they are most certainly driving to a glorious conclusion. Let us fix our eyes on that certainty, instead of the momentary tribulations of this brief life.

I just love that no matter what I feel and how things may DRASTICALLY change in my life, He is always the same. He still died for me. He still loves me. He is still on the throne. I may feel completely broken and unable to even put my feet on the ground, but He is still the same Lord and Savior to me that he was 2 years ago. This doesn't take away my sorrows and my pain, but I think it is so good to remind myself (outloud) that even so... I still know these things to be true.
