Freedom to be oneself in God

Artist: Jan Vermeer

Here's an idea for the New Year: Let's all learn to laugh more!

God’s love is a gift that can make you forget yourself at times. The Scottish writer George MacDonald said, “It is the heart that is not yet sure of its God that is afraid to laugh in his presence.” God loves us as we are right now! That’s one of the things I’m most grateful for. I love the freedom to be myself in God. I pray that a year from now, five years from now, I will be a godlier woman, but I know God won’t love me any more than he does right this minute.


-- Sheila Walsh

This is my prayer, too. This is my assurance, too, as well.
