"He Won't Let Go!" -2

"But Thou, O LORD, be merciful unto me, and raise me up, that I may requite them." (Psalms 41:10) Here is the thing that we must come to realize, God wants to give mercy unto us; He wants us to experience all the goodness that He has to offer us, and all of the beauty that is available, not only in that which is to come, but right here, right now, in this world that He has created. God does not make junk, and the more we take notice, the more we can experience and share in the splendor of God's majesty. That said; it takes that same way of thinking to examine and enjoy what God has done within our hearts; God does not make junk, and when He makes our hearts new, they are made in His image; what was once a hard and unloving heart, is now a heart made of clay, soft and pliable, and filled with His love. Because He has replaced that hard and loveless heart with this new loving heart, we can now love Him as He is to be loved, and we can love one another, just as we love ourselves, because we are all one heart, one love, and of One God. So, if you feel as though you don't love as though you should, then there is a sickness within your heart, and you need a touch from the Great Physician, who is more than willing to heal your heart; after all, He does not make junk, and anything that might be broken, He can fix. This word "requite" that David is speaking of means to be at peace, as in, one in a covenant of peace; to be whole, or to be complete; this is something that can only happen through love... "Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God. He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him. Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us, and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another. No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and His love is perfected in us. Hereby know we that we dwell in Him, and He in us, because He hath given us of His Spirit." (1 John 4:7-13)
