Have you ever wondered what true love is like? Have you ever received complete love from someone? There are many types of people in the world that we will encounter every day. But finding someone who is willing to risk all their lives to sacrifice for us is difficult. Besides the love of our parents and relatives, what is more special and noble love? Yes, the love of God. It is an unconditional, limitless, and boundless love. That love is given to all generations, from small children to the elderly, from the poor to the sinners. God created everything and covered all things with His boundless mercy. Luke 6, verses 20 through 21, says, looking at His disciples, He said, Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God. Blessed are you who hunger now, for you will be satisfied. Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh, NIV. We know that poverty and hunger are unavoidable aspects of life. Nobody is born materially rich. Nobody has just started a business that has been successful. Our lives are filled with difficulties and challenges. We are afraid of facing things we do not want to face. When confronted with the life of poverty, we must accept difficult conditions as a means of self-purification. We can cry and lament, but do not forget that God always loves us, giving us eternal grace and peace on us. He will take away our worries and burdens in life. He will always comfort, support, and protect us at all times, in all circumstances. Lord, our ultimate goal is kingdom happiness. Sometimes we want to get through it all, but life has a way of knocking us down for whatever reason. The faith in your salvation and sacrifice remains complete in our heart forever. We desire to be like you in our willingness to accept and endure a suffering. We trust in you as a light to guide us so that we may become more mature in faith and more steadfast in hope. Lord Jesus, give me strength and faith to stand firm. Help me to recognize your love in my daily life. Ezekiel 34, verses 15 through 16, says, "I myself will tend my sheep and have them lie down," declares the sovereign Lord. "I will search for the lost and bring back the strays. "I will bind up the injured and strengthen the weak, "but the sleek and the strong I will destroy. "I will shepherd the flock with justice." N-I-V, I believe that on our journey through life, we will sometimes make bad decisions and maybe go in the wrong way. We suddenly feel fear because our existence is unworthy. As sinners, what can we expect from God? Can He accept the worthless human being to return to Him? Lonely and helpless? We are like sheep, wandering and lost. The shadow surrounds us. The road of life is bumpy and we don't know where the shore of peace is. It is difficult to get out of the darkness alone to find a way to lift our despairing spirit. At such times, there is one thing we forget we cut off all intimate ties with God and choose to leave Him. God does not despise or reject us. His loving eyes always rejoice when we return to Him. The dark night will be illuminated by God's light and welcome us back after moments away from God. Yes, God. You have always protected and forgiven all of our flaws and mistakes. You have even pulled me out of the edge of death, not just once, but several times. We put our trust in you and surrender our lives to you. Please forgive me for all of our sins so that I can be closer to your love. Always guide us on the right path and keep us safe from all temptations throughout our lives. America, we are endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable rights, life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Could it be that this is a wound in the heart, not in the body? Could it be that this is the wound that even time cannot make us forget? Each person's heart will not be healed because of the hurt and pain they have experienced in life. Our heart is full of empty pieces waiting to be filled with love. And of course, God is the one who can feel that great pain inviting us to put our faith in His love. The power of God's presence at the right time next to the week, the broken souls is the ability to awaken our desire to live and to be loved. Free our mind from negative thoughts that are not worth bothering with. Entering the world of God's love, we clearly feel peace. God, thank you for keeping us from harm. Even though we often ask you, we should continue to go deeper into the hurt. Thank you for waking us up so that we know what we need more than what we want. Thank you, Lord, for all the moments when we are weak. You never leave us nor leave us alone. Thank you for healing me and keeping me alive, healthier and stronger every single moment of our life. Lord, let your precious blood wash away all the bitterness hidden deep within me. I pray that your love will spread throughout my heart, leading me to the path of peace. Help me stand firm in my faith and overcome difficulties to always be faithful to you. Where God's love is present, there is healing. First John chapter three, verse one says, "See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God, and that is what we are." The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him, in IV. How can we truly comprehend the depth of God's love? How can we describe the love that God has lavished on each of us? God's love is so great that we cannot fully understand it. That unconditional love never makes us hurt or feel betrayed. God created us because he loves us and desires for us to receive his noble love. If we are calm and silent to connect with him, we will feel the source of divine grace flowing in our hearts. When we accept God's call to love, we have the opportunity to become a friend, a child of God. We are fortunate to be cared for by God, even when we make mistakes. Thank you, God, for loving me and choosing us to be your children through faith and love. Grateful that in the midst of the storm, you are full of goodness and mercy. I am happy to praise the good things you have done for me. It is a warm family, a giving heart, and a strong mind to fight difficulties and live a more meaningful life. I believe that everything God does is because he loves us. I believe that God will help me to rely on you to pray diligently. I believe that God's bond with me will not be broken. Lord, I ask you to send down your Holy Spirit to help me gain a deeper understanding of your love. Strind in my faith and teach me to accept every challenging situation that comes my way. In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, I pray. (gentle music) (gentle music)
