Jesus saved me on the cross a long time ago but since then He hasn’t stopped saving me.
Don’t panic when you don’t feel God’s presence near, He is still there. He has not moved. Rest not in your feelings, but in His promise.
" You knew me before I was formed; my every thought, every word spoken, every mistake made. You knew when I would fake a smile and when I would break. You knew when I would lie, when I would run to the enemy and all of his promises. You knew every part of me and still knitted me in the womb with the utmost care. You remembered my name when You paid the price. You knew of my human nature, and You loved me without any conditions. You loved me before I knew what love was. You adored me when I rejected You. I came into this world a sinner, and You forgave me long before I took my first breath. Your arms are still outreached, even though You know all I have done and will do, because You loved me first. You knew and You loved me anyways - Christina Hopp
