Child of God, do you hesitate to claim this title? Has doubt made you forget that you're greatly loved too? Must you not have been dearly loved to have been bought with the precious blood of Christ, like a lamb without blemish?

When God struck His only Son for you, what was this if not great love? You lived in sin, indulged in it. Would God have been so patient with you if you weren’t greatly loved? You were called by grace, led to the Savior, and made a child of God and an heir of heaven. Doesn’t all of this prove an immense love?

Since then, whether your journey has been filled with troubles or blessings, it's been full of proofs that you're greatly loved. If the Lord has disciplined you, it wasn't in anger; if He made you poor, in grace you've been rich. The more unworthy you feel, the more it shows that only profound love could lead Jesus to save someone like you. The more you see your flaws, the clearer God’s overwhelming love becomes in choosing, calling, and making you an heir of joy.

So, with this love between God and us, let’s live in its sweetness and use our privileged position. Don’t approach Him as if you’re strangers or He’s unwilling to hear us—we are greatly loved by our Father. "He who didn't spare His own Son, but gave Him up for us all—how will He not also, along with Him, graciously give us all things?" Come boldly, believer. Despite Satan’s whispers and your own doubts, you're greatly loved. Reflect on the greatness and faithfulness of divine love tonight and rest in peace.

Closing Prayer

God, as we end this day, help us trust You fully, even when the path isn't clear. In Jesus' name, Amen.
