Profound Love
You Version
"See."
It's a word that beckons us to pause, behold, and admire the details that sometimes go unnoticed.
The writer John says, "See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are!" (1 John 3:1 NIV)
It sounds like a simple encouragement: fix your attention on the profound depths of God's love that surpasses all understanding!
And though this truth of God's love is simple, it's sometimes complex to truly grasp and behold. You might have scars of rejection from your past, trauma from those who were supposed to love you, or unreconciled relationships that make it so easy to forget that you are loved beyond measure by your Heavenly Father.
God's love reminds us that our brokenness doesn't define us—His unconditional love does. See, behold, and turn your affections toward this great love. Through the Father's lavish love, you are transformed, renewed, and brought into a relationship that eternally defines who you are.
God calls you His own—a child of God—not your past hurts or rejections. You are His, and you are loved beyond measure.
Pause today. Take intentional moments to see and behold. Reflect on how God's love for you has been made evident in your life through the years of joy and sorrow.
