God Just Loves You! :-)

SO, one day, probably 2 weeks ago now, I was walking back to the BCM, wrapped up in my own little world and my own little problems. Until I passed a most curious man.

'HI' the man said with a little dance.
'Oh...um, hi!' said an unexpected me. Not unexpected because he popped out of nowhere, but slightly unexpected because he said hello, and people on sidewalks don't typically speak.
'God...He just loves you!' he said with a smile.

So, let's talk about all the things right with this completely random exchange. I've learned that while it's VERY easy to say 'GOD LOVES ME' that it's sometimes hard to live life like we believe it. I mean, honestly, sickness, heartache, confusion, depression, all of these things strike. It's very easy to feel unloved by God when you think about it. Natural human intuition says that someone who loves you does not, or does there best not to allow bad things to happen to you.

But that's the cool thing about God. He allows things to happen to us so we'll lean closer to Him. He allows things to happen.
But often times, we forget that. And then we get wrapped up in our own personal feelings. Feelings of worthlessness, feelings of being unlovable, feelings of not being worthy of anything.

So God, since He is totally crazy about us, sends us reminders.

For me, it was a bald man who reminded me that God just loves me.

I ran into him 3 days in a row. The 2nd and 3rd time, we shared a smile and a nod, like we both knew what he was saying.

So thank you, random man, for reminding me of something I needed to remember.

and if you've happened to stumble upon this silly little blog, let me remind you of something.

God...He just loves you!
