I am reminded that God passionately love his children and his people. I am reminded that he loves his people -- even when they don't seek him. Malachi 3 states that God sees his people and claims them. He says, "They will be mine." (V.17)
I think the same is true for how The Lord looks at us even when we are disobedient. He claims us as his beloved and loves us endlessly. He is not faltering in that because he is not a God that will ever change. He is consistent in his promise to love us.
I hear his whisper saying:
"You are mine. You are my treasured possession. I find no flaw in you,"
Song of Solomon 4:7
"You are altogether beautiful, my darling; there is no flaw in you"
What greater joy do we have to live in. The way we view ourselves is not even close to how The Lord, our Father and creator views us. We can rest assured that in his sight we aren't broken -- but lovely.
