The Most I’ve Ever Felt Loved

Daily writing prompt
Can you share a positive example of where you’ve felt loved?

I’ve felt — and consistently feel — so intensely loved by God that I seek to settle for nothing less than His will for me. (Matthew 6:33) Being consciously aware of God’s fervent and sacrificial love for me has made my life about the great pursuit of putting my all into pressing closer and closer toward Jesus Christ (Philippians 3:14) and the purifying fire of His Spirit. (Matthew 3:11-12)

Jesus came for us all (John 3:16) to set us free (John 8:32) from our pride (James 4:6) and our sin (Matthew 1:21) so that we can be empowered (1 Corinthians 4:20) to humble ourselves, seek His face, turn from our wicked ways, (2 Chronicles 7:14)) and be continually led and directed by His Spirit (Romans 8:14) instead of by our own feelings, desires, and opinions. (Luke 9:23)

The way to get to know Jesus isn’t by watching, supporting, and being a fan of a streaming series about a fictionalized Jesus. It’s by opening the door of your heart to the living resurrected Jesus Christ (Revelation 3:20) and allowing Him to come in, live within you, (Colossians 1:27) and take direct daily control of your life by His Spirit. (Romans 8:14)

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
