Love of God

May the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God and into the steadfastness and patience of Christ.
2 THESSALONIANS 3:5 AMP

There are so many things vying for our affection: cars, shoes, clothes, food, movies, games, mobile phones, sports etc yet Paul tells us to direct our affection into the love of God. How does He compare?

For me there is no comparison, He is way above all else. Today I was up on my hill culling tiger pear (nasty prickles) but was able to enjoy the breeze, the sun and the view was spectacular. I rejoiced in the One who created it. The surrounding hills were so blue and after recent rain, the valley is beginning to green up.

My early morning with the Lord bring glory upon glory as I watch a pink hue descend from above down on the blue sky and dark blue hills. It is as if I am having my own pillar of fire every morning. How good is God?

No one comforts like my God, no one loves like He does. He is the best! Amen!
