God’s Unfailing Love

I must confess that after my first year in seminary school—and many other circumstances in my life—I felt like and believed God’s love was too far to reach me.

I wanted to fall in love with God again.

I needed that intimate moment with God: to feel His mighty hand lifting and tossing me up in the air.

When He lets go of me, as the wind sways me while in the air, He patiently waits to catch me again.

I wanted to feel His tender kiss, and gentle touch. I wanted to hear Him say, “I love you”.

I wanted a God hug.

All these seemed impossible, the world told me.

Slowly I began to believe, but my convictions were too strong to give in.

So I continued the search for God’s love.

  1. I love this piece on “God’s Unfailing Love.” Thank you for sharing. We all go through challenges but it is good to remember that God got our back. Many times I, too, feel like I need “a God hug.”
