As I meditate on God’s unconditional love, I realize there is no way I can ever repay Him. With gratefulness I hear myself softly singing, “But drops of grief can ne’er repay, the debt of love I owe. Here Lord, I give myself away, tis all that I can do.” And after a moment I breath these words, “Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord, to the cross where Thou has died; Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord, to thy precious bleeding side.”

Pause for a moment in the mad rush of busyness that is your life and let the love of God wash over you. Sense His near presence.

“I have loved you, my people, with an everlasting love.
With unfailing love I have drawn you to myself.”

— Jeremiah 31:3 (NLT)

Love us forever O’Lord and hold us close to Your heart. Amen.
