The Lord’s assurance
I have loved you with an everlasting love. With unfailing love, I have drawn you to myself. I knew you before I formed you. I knit you in your mother’s womb. I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. You are loved by the Lord God Almighty. You are a blessing and not a curse. You are a gift from the Lord, you were planned by me. You were thought of before you came into existence. You are not an accident. You are my masterpiece created in Christ Jesus for good works. Come to Me, all you who labour and are heavy-laden and overburdened, and I will cause you to rest. [I will [a]ease and relieve and [b]refresh [c]your souls.]. The Lord is God and you are my beloved
