Cherished

Do you believe that Jesus cherishes you today? We hear so often that Jesus loves us that we almost become desensitized to the truth of it. The word cherish gives a different slant to the common idea of love. It means to protect and care for, to hold dear. Jesus holds you close to his heart. In his mind, you are his treasure. Your whole world will begin to change as you accept the truth that Jesus loves you unconditionally.

His protection and care are far superior to any you will find on earth. And the best part of all is that he will never change his mind about you. My friend, always remember that no matter what mistakes you make, no matter how many times you fail him, Jesus will never walk away from you. He will never give up on you. He loves you as much on your worst day as he does on your best day. Let your heart be rocked by this truth today!

Prayer from Kim Crabill:

Lord, how thankful I am that you cherish me today, holding me close to your heart. You rejoice over me with a song. You gather me under your wings. You are gentle through and through, tenderly caring for me as for a child or a lost sheep. Please let the assurance of this love transform me in every moment of my day today. I want to pass this love on to others as I fall deeper in love with you. Amen.
