Fully Pleased
A voice came from heaven and said: "You are my Son and I love
you. I am very pleased with you."
-- Mark 1:11 (ERV)
KEY THOUGHT:
Isn't this what we all need to hear from the ones we love the most?
Look at what is being said. I claim you as my child! I love you! I am
completely pleased with you! God shared these incredible affirmations
with his Son. In the subsequent verses, Jesus will go face the
temptations of Satan in the wilderness armed with the understanding
that his Heavenly Father lovingly and proudly claims him as his child.
You know, when we were baptized, I can't help but believe God said the
same things about you and me!
TODAY'S PRAYER:
Loving and adoring Father, I know I do not merit your love and grace.
Yet, dear Father, I am overwhelmed with them and thankful for them. As
your child, please know that I love and adore you ... even in those
times when I make wrong choices and also when I succumb to temptation's
power. Father, do not ever let the evil one strip my love for you from
me nor let him cloud my eyes to your love. In Jesus' name. Amen.
