On 1st January I started another blog on Blogger. It was experimental and I was just trying out the platform. Well now I have removed the link here and closed the Blogger site. It was a waste of time.

I’m feeling so loved.
Posted by Shirley Anne on February 25, 2010
I’m feeling so loved. It isn’t the kind of love I would get from a lover. It isn’t the kind of love I’d get from a friend. It isn’t the kind of love I’d get from a mother but this love is so much better. My Father loves me. It wouldn’t matter if I didn’t love him. He would love me just the same. I have two sons. I love them both. My love for them would not change no matter what they might do. I may disagree with them, I may think their lifestyles were not right. Nothing they could do would make me love them less. I would be sorely disappointed if they were wicked sons who were bent on doing evil things but I would still love them. I would be constantly wishing they would turn away from their evil ways and would be there for them when they did, welcoming them with open arms. That is how it is with my Father. He waited for 43 years for me to turn to him and when I did he was there waiting to welcome me. I feel so loved and I know I am not worthy but his gift is his love freely given to me because I turned to him. There is no greater love than that love which was given to me. I didn’t earn it. I couldn’t earn it. I will never earn it. If I did good works all the days of my life I still would not be worthy. The gift comes unconditionally to those who believe and turn to him. Simple isn’t it? I’ll say no more…………
‘For it is by grace that you are saved, through faith and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God, not by works so that no-one can boast’……….Ephesians 2:8-9
