Dallin Oaks is quoted as saying, "Desires dictate our priorities, priorities shape our choices, and choices determine our actions." Many of us have a desire to be loved. People will search for others to love them and even consider changing who they are to please others. Fortunately, there is a source of unconditional, unfailing love waiting for each and every one of us!
God is the source of unconditional love. He loved us when we were sinners. He loved us so much that He sent His Son to die for our sin. God is also the source of unfailing love. He will endure forever and His love will endure forever. Nothing can separate us from His love. We don't have to change to be loved by God, but once we experience His love, we will want to be better to live in His love and presence forever! With our eyes and hearts fixed on God, our desire for unfailing love can be fulfilled!
Keep the desires of your heart set on God and allow Him to fill you with His unfailing love!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for Your love and for always loving me. Help me to keep my heart focused on You so I can be filled with Your unfailing love. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
