1 John 4:18

Where God's love is, there is no fear, because God's perfect love drives out fear 1 John 4:18

Somewhere, sometime, some thing convinced us that God's going to nail us when we've gone too far.  No concept could be more wrong!  Our Savior's Father is very fond of us and only wants to share his love with us.  We have a Father who is filled with compassion...a feeling Father who hurts when his children hurt. 
We serve a God who says that even when we...feel like nothing is going to go right, he is waiting for us, to embrace us whether we succeed or fail.

from "Walking With The Savior" by Max Lucado

Can you really picture this...just for a moment!  He loves us!!  Instead of trying to make our lives work and worth something ourselves, we can lean back in His embrace, let Him wrap His arms around us and help us with His strong hands to do everything we need to!!

PRAISE THE LORD!!
The only true work of art is a human soul,
all else is but a reflection
