Many a times when the heart of a man is weary due to situations around him, it is often time difficult for that man’s heart to still accept that God still loves him. The first thing every man should understand is that the love of God is not circumstance based. Whether situation around you is good or not, God still loves you. His love is so much that while we were yet sinners, He sent his son to die for us (you inclusive).
YOU ARE NOT ALONE
Love means different things to different people. Also, people express love through different means. Many do not know how God expresses His and because of that they often think God has left them all alone by themselves. No! That is not true.
God loves you and He cares for you. His love for you is unshaken and not wavering. The scriptures said even the hairs on your head are numbered. Wow! What manner of love is that?
In every situation you find yourself God is there with you.
