He Will Raise You Up

Recently, a member of the Church sent around a PowerPoint presentation about God which contained a very useful thought:
God loves us because of who God is; not because of who we are or anything whe have or have not done.
When I stop struggling to be "good" or "holy," I am already in the shadow of God's hand and fed with living water and the bread of life. If I am still mired in the struggle, I am focused on myself, and not on God - I might miss the person I was sent to love today - even if only with a kind smile or soft word.
How I love you, Oh God, for being You!
