Under Construction

The other day I was singing the song "He's still working on me" to Kylie. I was explaining to her that God is actively working in her life, and will continue to do so for as long as she is alive. He has a plan to continue His work within her until the very end. Along the way, her reward is that she will get to experience many wonderful works of His Spirit in her life as she gets to know and love her Savior.

And He does all of that because He loves her so much. Not because she is so cute (she is), or because she has had it a little hard in her first 4 years (she has) or because she has awesome parents (I may be biased there). It is because God is love, and He has love for her.

As well as for all of us!

God is at work within each one of us. He is actively involved in our lives, transforming us into the image of His Son. He has placed His Spirit within us to guide us through this temporary existence to the eternal life that He created before the world was formed.

It would be life-changing if we only understood how great His love is for us!

So many times I hear Satan confusing women with lies which leave them broken-hearted and insecure. If we would only hold close the sword of truth proclaiming that, before the creation of the world, God loved us so much that He planned our redemption. Think about it, before Day One, before Eve bit the "apple", before the fall of man, God knew that we would need a Savior and had the plan in place. He loved us enough to go ahead and create us knowing the price that He would pay would be...... Himself.

That's amazing love!
