“How God loves us: not because we are lovable but because He is love, not because He needs to receive but He delights to give.” -C.S. Lewis

Our Heavenly Father is love. He defines what love really means. His love is never conditional. He loves us even though we have so many weaknesses, shortcomings, and failures. He doesn’t give us love selfishly because He needs to receive our love. He selflessly showers His love upon us because He loves us so much.

I was taught at a young age that my Heavenly Father loved me. I have always believed it and I still do. The way I feel His love the most is when I kneel down and pray to Him. I can’t comprehend how He can be there for me and His billions of other children, each individually. But I guess I don’t need to understand that, I just need to believe that He is there for me whenever I need Him.

Another way I feel His love for me is walking and seeing the beauties of nature He created for me to enjoy. He is the Master Artist because this world is so beautiful. I love the many colors of His creations. I love looking at the flowers in the spring and the changing colors of autumn.

Our Heavenly Father truly is love. He exemplifies love. He defines what love really should be. If we need an example of how to love someone, we just need to look at how He loves us. I am human and I make mistakes daily. But He loves me no matter what. I can’t do anything to diminish or take away His love. His love is always there for me.

Where do you see God’s love in the world around you? How does knowing that God’s love isn’t conditional change the way you see yourself?
