No Condemnation....Just Love
One night, I was exhausted and overburdened with a deep sense of guilt-false and real. Prayers could not be expressed to Him; eyes could not read His word. Then, as I climbed into my bed, God put me to restful sleep with these words....
"No condemnation...just love...and love...and love..."
I literally felt as if I was crawling into my heavenly Father's lap and cuddling into sweet slumber in His loving arms....I sobbed like a little child, hurt by the happenings too complicated for me to understand..... ...and fell asleep while a voice in me echoed: "He gives to His beloved sleep."
Meditation:
Psalm 127:2
"....for He grants sleep to those He loves."
Romans 8:1-4
"Therefore, there is now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus...."
John 3:16-17
"....For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him."
