God AMAZES

You guys, rejection sucks. I've been feeling rejected by one of my friends lately. No matter how many times we chat or I ask her to hang out, I always get shut down. Why doesn't she like me?! (Maybe I'm trying too hard.) 

Then someone reminded me about how this is only a tiny glimpse of how God feels about us. Or our parents and us.  

My parentals. They love me sooooo much.

Or me and my hubby. 

When he first asked me out, my exact thoughts were "ew, no." I know, how could I resist this face?

Sigh. I was thinking about this when we were talking in Hi Koi about how God AMAZES us. Who else would still welcome us with open arms even though we don't want to spend time with Him? Or love us even though we've sinned again and again even though we promised we wouldn't? Or what about those times when we fell asleep in service in His House on His day? 

What also AMAZES me is how He will always love us, no matter what. 

"Praise the Lord! Oh give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; for His lovingkindness is everlasting." - Psalm 106:1
