You Are Loved

Dear Daughters,

You are loved. You are so very loved.

I never want you to doubt that truth. I never want you to question it for even a moment.

We love you simply because you are our daughters. There is nothing you can do to earn our love and nothing you can do to lessen our love for you. We love you because you are you. May you rest confidently in that.

We want you to know, without any uncertainty or hesitation, we love you, but more importantly we want you to know that your Maker loves you. And He displayed His love for you, for all of us, by sending Jesus to bear the weight of your, and all our, sins by dying on the cross. If you ever begin to question if you are loved, look to the cross. Look to the cross and see His body broken for you and His blood shed for you.
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him." {John 3:16-17}
And after looking to the cross, turn and look to the tomb. Look to the tomb and see that He is not buried there. He not only died on the cross, but He rose from the dead. Love conquered sin and conquered death and reigns victorious! His love knows no bounds.
"What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things? Who shall bring any charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies. Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died-more than that, who was raised-who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? As it is written, 'For your sake we are being killed all day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.' No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord."
​{Romans 8: 31-39}
God's love is everlasting. It is a love like no other. It is fierce and it is perfect; it is gentle and it is pure. I pray you know His love, experience His love, share His love. May you be continually captivated by His love for you.

And we hope our love for you points you to Him. We hope you wake up everyday completely convinced you are loved. You are so dearly loved.

Love You Always,
Mama
