We Are Not Consumed
Affliction, wandering, bitterness. Disappointment, depression, hopelessness. These experiences are common to humanity. They are what life is like here on earth for all of us who live long enough to know. How can we not be overwhelmed by this? We are such small, insignificant creatures. The answer is that we are not: God has a great love for us, and that makes us invaluable. Every morning, He re-commits to us. Every day, He gives us reason to persevere. So much of life is living patiently with hardship, believing in God’s love and goodness and waiting on what He has in store for us and the whole of creation.
Question: In your times of sorrow and suffering, can you say to yourself “The Lord loves me, I can wait”?

About this Plan
“Love is love” has become a catchphrase of our times. But it does not have any meaning until we define what love is. The Christian starting point is to say that God is love. This series looks to understand the nature of God’s love. By the end of the series, I hope that the word ‘love’ has all the rich and flavoursome ingredients to it that Scripture has to offer.
