I really can't explain why I love the LORD like I do. I don't just love Him because he showers me with gifts, I don't just love Him because He answers my prayers - I love God because of the great things He has done for me and my family.
God loves me for who I am - He created me and made my the person I am today. I don't have to look a certain way for God to accept me, or sacrifice an animal or burn a candle for Him to protect me or my family.
God is kind, merciful, and loving. Somehow, even though I can't "see" him physically, I can sense his presence - I can almost "see" in my mental mind Him looking down on me or even protecting us.
Like in Church Saturday, I almost could see God behind me, and I could see his figure standing there, surrounded in a halo of clouds and light. Of course it physically wasn't actually there, but in my heart I knew He was there.
And, a couple of times, when I'm really said, I get this warm, cuddly feeling as if someone is hugging me - and I know it's not my dog giving me a hug, or any of my family members, even my other pets. I know it was God hugging me.
Don't worry IHeart. The love we feel for God doesn't only come from our hearts but from Him Himself and the in dwelling of the Holy Spirit.
