God's pursuit of me is enough

     I have never felt more loved by God than I do right now. His love for me is so great! His love is unfailing and relentless. He's not once stopped pursuing me. He was there my whole life just waiting on me to surrender completely to His love. He is slowly healing every broken area of my life. He's putting the broken pieces back together again and creating something new in my life! My heart is overflowing with thankfulness. I am so in love with God! All I want to do is know Him more and live my life to please Him in every way possible. I want to pursue Him the way He has pursued me. 

     For the longest time I chased after the approval of the world. I chased things that never satisfied the longing in my soul. I tried to fill my broken heart up with things that only left me empty and longing for more. They satisfied for a moment but ultimately led me to shame and bondage. I wasted so much time trying to win the approval of others, when all along God had already approved of my worth and being. 

     God created us all with the desire to be pursued. We all want to feel loved and accepted. We all want to feel like we have a purpose in this world. We all desire to be wanted by someone. The thing we have to realize is that God's pursuit of us is enough. We don't need a man or woman to pursue us. God's love should be enough. God's thoughts toward us should be enough. What He thinks of us is far more important than what others think or say about us. He's the one that created us. He knows us, every single thing! He knows our fears, he knows our desires, he knows our needs, he knows us! The creator knows you and loves everything about you. He placed those gifts inside of you. He placed those desires and dreams inside of you. He knows your weaknesses and he knows when you feel like a failure. He knows you and yet He still chooses to love you and pursue you!
