Me: You are getting in the Christmas mood?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prodigal: I am just checking if any gifts have found there way in yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Me: Might bit too early for that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is from the book Reclaiming Your Heart by Denise Hildreth Jones<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can I share something with you? There may always be people who don’t think you are worth much. They may see only your failures, only your sins, only the wrong things you have done. They may even determine that you have nothing of value to offer them. But that is about their hearts, not yours. It doesn’t have anything to do with what God sees when he looks at you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Lord sees you. He knows you. What does He feel? He feels love toward you. Even with what people have said about you today, focus on what the Lord says to your spirit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Psalm 95:1-5<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The heights of the hills are His also.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sea is His, for He made it; And His hands formed the dry land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
