How Much We Are Loved

“Each of us has a soul, but we forget to value it. We don’t remember that we are creatures made in the image of God. We don’t understand the great secrets hidden inside of us.” – St. Teresa of Avila

We are loved… so much and so deeply. Our problem is that we don’t know and we seek this love constantly from those who could never give it to us.

If we only knew, our lives would never be the same again. If we only understood, we’d be so happy we’d think this place called earth is already heaven itself. For how could it not be heaven?

Heaven is knowing that you are valued and cared for. That someone knows you just as you are and loves you even more because it is so.

It is knowing that you are ever present in someone else’s thought. Day and night you are thought of, thought of with so much sweetness and affection.

You are beautiful in someone else’s eyes. You may not know it, but it doesn’t change the truth about how much you are loved.

“For your Maker is your husband; the Lord of Hosts is his name.” – Isaiah 54:5, WEBME
