I got this same message yesterday in two different places:
First in a Mark Batterson blog post he quoted from a new Brennan Manning book:
"The Father not only loves you, he likes you."
Mark went on to say this: "In my experience, most of us believe that God loves us. But we aren't so sure He likes us. Listen, He loves you and likes you enough to spend eternity with you."
Then another email I got expanded on 1 Peter 2:4 . . . "Chosen by God and precious to him."
It's so essential to regard yourself as one chosen by God and precious to him. Sometimes . . . you tend to underrate yourself becauseyou underestimate God's love for you . . . Please accept his thoughts that are higher than your thoughts by regarding yourself as clothed in Jesus.
What do you think? Do you believe that God really LIKES you? He does. As a matter of fact He likes you more than anyone on this planet. He's cheering you on today to live in light of how much He believes in you.
