How Sweet It Is

Keep your eyes on God and keep your feet moving.  Stay mission minded and don’t let anyone hold you back.  The funny thing about people that try to hold you back is that they want you to stay back with them.  Refuse to be anything less than your best.  God does not create less than average creations, so keep your thoughts and your dreams at hand because there is so much in store for you. You are exceptional!

Good day to you all!  Today is another chance for you to be the best you that you can be!  Don’t miss this golden opportunity to be the light that shines in someone’s midnight sky!  You are needed!

How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
I needed the shelter of someone's arms and there you were
I needed someone to understand my ups and downs and there you were
With sweet love and devotion
Deeply touching my emotion-Marvin Gaye “How Sweet It Is”

There are so many songs about love, but I must say that the above lyrics are some of my favorites.  Marvin Gaye was singing about the sweet feeling that you get when someone loves you.  He is singing the song specifically to a person who has been there when there were ups and downs. Wouldn’t it be wonderful to have a love to sing about.

I close my eyes at night
Wondering where would I be without you in my life
Everything I did was just a bore
Everywhere I went it seems I'd been there before
But you brighten up for me all of my days
With a love so sweet in so many ways-Marvin Gaye ‘How Sweet It Is”

Dear Reader I want to give you something to sing about on this day.  God’s love for us is the sweetest love there is.  I say again, God’s love for us is the sweetest love there is.  I say that God’s love is the sweetest because God’s love is deeper than we can imagine and more infinite than we could possibly understand. You may have known love but I can guarantee that you have never known love like this.  This is the type of love that is faithful.  This is the type of love that is everlasting.  This type of love is not jealous.  This type of love is patient.  God loved you so much that He sent His son down from Heaven so that He could take the form of a mortal man.  He was accused of crimes He did not commit.  He was treated like a criminal and hung from cross.  Just when death thought that it was all over, the sweetest part of His love unfolded.  Jesus got up from that tomb and defeated death and the grave so that we could have life.  How sweet it is to be loved by Him.  Dear Reader He is waiting on you to make that move towards Him!  I can tell you from experience How Sweet It Is to Be loved By Him!

You are beautiful, loved, and blessed
