Love > Rules
🕑 Added 2022-06-08 11:00:04 +0000 UTCA devotion that I was reading had some profound statements that YOU need to hear:
Nothing will ever separate us from the love of Christ (Romans 8:38)
~Our unbelief cannot.
~Our bad decisions cannot.
~Our pride and self-sufficiency cannot.
You will never escape His love for you.
Not only are we offered a love we can’t outrun, but we are given an identity that can’t be shaken.
“Define yourself radically as one beloved by God. This is the true self. Every other identity is an illusion.” ~Brennan Manning.
(from the devotion on YouVersion called: Wonderfully Made)
We get so caught up in rules and enforcing them with ourselves and others that we completely lose sight of Him and His love. When the rules aren’t followed by ourselves, we beat ourselves up. When the rules aren’t followed by others, we get angry/frustrated/sometimes wallow in a pity party!
Time to switch that way of thinking. Start with His overwhelming love, not with more rules to follow. He will lead you in the way everlasting.
