My love is everlasting.

Jeremiah 31:3
Long ago the Lord said to Israel: “I have loved you, my people, with an everlasting love. With unfailing love I have drawn you to myself. NLT

I know the love you have experienced here on earth is finite and often conditional. I understand how human love with its limits and conditions has made you feel insecure and unsettled at times. I am moved with compassion to see how the absence of true love has devastated your heart throughout your life.

For I created you by love and for love. And I have placed a longing in your heart for something more than even the most loving people can give you. I created you to experience a love that has no beginning and has no end. It is an everlasting love that transcends time and space, yet it is closer to you than you could possibly hope for.

For there has never been a time in all eternity where you haven't been loved dear one. I have always carried you and will always carry you forever. And today, in the midst of all the struggles you face in the broken, fallen world in which you live, I am loving you with an everlasting love.

So take a deep breath My little one, and just breathe in My unconditional love and acceptance in this very moment. For it is from everlasting to everlasting, yet it is here for you to experience, right here and right now.
