The Son of God… loved me and gave himself for me.
Galatians 2:20
Some time ago, a minister from England went to India to deliver a series of evangelistic messages. When he arrived, there were posters hanging all over town advertising the evening meetings at which he would be speaking.
The posters were supposed to read: “The visiting minister from England will bring the evening messages.” But instead, there was a typo, and the posters actually said: “The visiting minister from England will bring the evening massages.”
The work of the preacher is to massage the Word of God into the soul until it changes what you think and feel. But some of us who have experienced very little love earlier on in life, or who are perfectionists by nature, tend to have great difficulty in feeling that we are truly loved by God.
If this is true of you, then you need this workout: Start to memorise and personalise Bible passages that speak directly of the love of God. Massage them into your mind until they begin to loosen up your heart: “God shows his love for me in that while I was still a sinner, Christ died for me” (Rom. 5:8, author’s paraphrase).
Allow God to tell you that He loves you. This is the Word of God. This is what God is saying to you. Learn to listen to what He says.
Identify a Bible passage or two about God’s love that you’d like to personalise and memorise.
