Scripture: 1 Corinthians 13:4-7, 1 John 4:7-18,

My beloved daughter, I love you. I’ve always loved you even before you were aware of me. Even before you loved me. I loved you first. Love comes from me for I am love itself. Love is one of my many names. I am Elohim Ahavah; the God of Love. I am patient. I am kind. I do not envy or boast. I am not proud. I do not dishonour others. I am not self-seeking. I am not easily angered. I keep no record of wrongs. I do not delight in evil but rejoice with truth. I always protect. I always trust. I always hope and I always persevere. I never fail.

I demonstrated my love for you by sacrificing my one and only Son, Jesus. He took on the punishment of your sins so I can have a relationship with you if you so choose. That’s all I want. I redeemed you because you are worth it, my beloved daughter. Your sins have been washed away as far as from the east is from the west.

If you live in fear of punishment or live in torment, that is not from me. It just means you need to be perfected in my love. My perfect love casts out fear. My love is unconditional. You don’t need to meet conditions, perform a certain way or be perfect to receive my love. That love is worldly. That’s not my love. Let my love be a healing balm to your wounds. Let my love transform you from the inside out. You do not need to live in shame or condemnation. There is no shame or condemnation in my love. Come to me, my daughter whom I love and cherish. I am waiting with open arms.
