The Love of our Creator ... as published on Instagram by @wow_god

There is something incredible about the Love of our Creator. His love is endless, boundless, and it perseveres and conquers ALL of our fears. 

It is a love that courses through our veins and that which quenches our thirst for the fullness of life. 
​
His love is a love that looks you in the eyes and says, “I want you. Just as you are. Even in the mess and the tears, I want you.” His love doesn’t take or harm, it doesn’t leave you less than you were before, and it isn’t temporary. His love is not empty or full of false promises. His love does not strip you of your dignity. 

Instead, His love builds and molds and creates all that is good, such as you. His love is eternal and gives you meaning. His love fulfills our deepest desires and outcompetes any fear or doubt because no fear could ever come close to the strength of our Lord. 

We are made to be good and we all have the potential for good. And along with this creation comes uniqueness and intricacy. Each child, breathed to life by our Creator, yet different and beautiful in his/her own way. As He molds our hearts, He creates something intangible within - the desire for Love. The Love we long for, the desire aching in our hearts, cannot be satisfied by anyone or anything else than Him alone. 

Among the many different gifts He bestows upon us, there is the gift of wanting to achieve and accomplish our goals. Working hard and setting goals to achieve for ourselves can be a beautiful thing because it can allow us to use our gifts for self improvement and can guide us closer to the person He wants us to be. However, we must not get lost in the world, we mustn’t place our identity in our accomplishments or failures, and we must not compare ourselves to others. Because we are created to be who God made us to be: ourselves, and we can reach the fullness of who we are meant to be by knowing the One who made us. 
​
We must recognize that we are created by Love Himself, and we must Love Him first. And in that Love, our souls yearn to glorify God in all we do. We must first desire to glorify God and to keep all His commandments, and out of that true love and trust, He will bring forth goodness and make our lives fruitful.
