How he loves us
Melanie - August 25, 2009
Yesterday I dropped my little girl off at school for the new school year and my heart ached a little bit that summer was over and we'd have a little less time to spend together every day.
I came home and spent some time reading my Bible and praying for her. Praying that she'd always have a heart for God, praying that she'd like the first grade, praying that she'd have a friend to sit with in the cafeteria at lunch.
And my heart just felt overwhelmed with the love that I have for her.
Then later I was in my car and I heard this song by the David Crowder Band come on the radio. I realized that no matter how much I love my little girl, He loves her more.
He loves me more.
He loves you more.
I just thought maybe we could all use a reminder that, as the song lyrics say:
"We are His portion and He is our prize,
Drawn to redemption by the grace in His eyes,
If grace is an ocean, we're all sinking."
May we all sink in His grace today.

I found that song last week and have listened to it over and over again. I love the line, “We are His portion and He is Our Prize.”
