You Are the Apple of His Eye

For those of you that struggle with God's love and acceptance, read on:

God is intimate and involved, kind and compassionate, accepting and filled with joy over you. He is warm and affectionate - always eager to be with you. He is patient and slow to anger, loving, gentle and protective. God is trustworthy and wants to give you a full life. His will is good, perfect and acceptable for you. He is full of grace and mercy and He gives you freedom to fail. He is tenderhearted and forgiving. His arms are always open wide to you. He is committed to your growth and proud of you as His beloved child.

God is NOT distant and disinterested, insensitive and uncaring. He is NOT stern and demanding, passive or cold. He is NOT too busy for you. He is not impatient, angry, mean, cruel or abusive. He does NOT reject you and is NOT trying to take all of the fun out of your life. God is NOT controlling or manipulative, condemning or unforgiving. He is NOT a nit-picking, demanding perfectionist.

He is God, your Father and you are the apple of His eye!!!
