You are Precious in His sight
HI BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE (: this is for the girlllllllllssssssssssssss in my life. i love youu all and i know that you WILL be blessed by this, an excerpt from T.D. Jake's The Lady, Her Lover, Her Lord. (:
"There is no relationship the lady can experience that is any more fulfilling than the relationship that exists between her and her Lord. It is being held in His everlasting arms that brings about healing from the damages that she has incurred in her pursuit of every other relationship. In His arms, she finds restoration. There will be times when she feels like a little girl, and in His presence she will climb into the lap of a loving Father whose sound wisdom, counsel, and consistent love will insulate her from the adversary whom she must fight. Her Father becomes her protector. He protects her by His Spirit. He counsels her by His Word. He forgives her through His blood, and she if safe in His arms.
He is the solace that heals the feminine soul and renews her mind. he is the missing ingredient that adds validity to every other pursuit of her life. If she gains everything and fails to know Him, she has nothing at all. His love for her is so pure that she will find no other like it. It is not predicated upon her performance or her appearance or her intellectual capacity. He has loved her before she was formed in the womb of her mother. His love is holy. It becomes the foundation that her character is built upon. The woman who knows the love of God is not desperate for the love of men because in His arms she has already found that for which her soul thirsts. Now, this is not to say that having Christ will fulfill every void that she has as a woman. But her satisfaction in His presence is so complete that it removes her far away from the desperate need for affection and affirmation that leads other women to grope and grasp blindly in the night. She can run to Him in every crisis and know that He will not fail her, He will not desert her, He will not leave her, and He will not change.
Strangely, women seem to possess some special ability to touch the heart of God. It is so powerful that Jeremiah, the weeping prophet who was known to be a man of great compassion, still found himself needing the intercesory power of women to touch the heart of God. He said, "Send for the women of mourning and let them take up a wailing" (Jer 9:17). It's as if he knows that God's ears are open to the cry of distressed women. It is not that God favors women over men, but the Lord looks out for His daughters and takes care of their needs. Jesus promises, "If you believe on me as the scripture has said, then out of your belly shall flow rivers of living water." (John 7:38). I then challenge you, in accordance to His Word, to believe in Him. You have believed in others and have been disappointed. You have believed in others and have been rejected. But this is a promise from a man who cannot lie. The challenge is for the woman to believe in Him. If you will, there will be no drought in your heart, no dryness in your spirit, and no emptiness in your life, for God will quench your thirst with living water." (163-64)
