“The desire to love and be loved is the most basic human need. You realize how deeply God loves you? You are a human being who is loved by God. You are intelligent, beautiful, loved, and not alone. Take a minute to think about that God loves you, and not because of what you do. He loves you for who you are and will never leave you because of anything youve done. Isnt that just the kind of love youve always dreamed about?You might not think of yourself as exceptional, but you are. You are a hand-crafted original. God made you on purpose, no accidents of fate or chance. The Bible says that when God created man and woman He saw everything that He had made, indeed it was very good. (Genesis 1:31) God created you and He is interested in the details of your life. The Bible tells us that Gods knows each of us better than we know ourselves he even knows how many hairs are on your head! (Matthew 10:30)Its pretty incredible to think about.”
