Do you ever feel like God is less than completely satisfied with who you are?
If so, then you’re not alone.
But even though many other Christians have shared in your sentiments, it doesn’t mean that you or they are right.
The truth is, when you were born again in His Son, Jesus Christ, Father God became just as satisfied with you as He is with His Son.
That’s right!
Why don’t you take a few moments to lean in and listen to the One who is not only completely satisfied with you, but continually sings and dances over you with joy.
“My glorious one, whether you are a new believer or you have been in Me for years, it is vital that you understand you aren’t necessarily going to feel like a brand-new person 24/7/365.”
“Feelings are in the realm of the soul and body, both of which are subject to the influences of the world in which you live.”
“Your new birth is in your spiritual heart and involves faith—believing in the unseen or the unfelt.”
“Even though you may not see or feel the truth that your identity has changed, you can know it through believing My Word.”
“Bottom line: your new birth is an eternal spiritual reality.”
“Because I have brought you into eternal spiritual union with Me, you can ask Me to cause you to experience greater intimacy with Me.”
“This comes from fastening your attention on My indwelling Spirit in your heart, talking to Me, and listening for My response to you.”
“The marvelous truth is that I am in you and I continually sing and dance over you with joy!”
“Why?”
“Because you said yes to My invitation to enter into this divine romance!”
“You can rest assured that your sins are gone and you are complete in Me.”
“I am fully satisfied with who you are now and forevermore.”
Dear reader, do you believe that Jesus is continually celebrating your eternal spiritual union with Him, even when your behavior is less than stellar?
