The Upper Room Daily Devotional 22 September 2022 MESSAGE

Seventeen years ago, I had a breakthrough and finally understood the Lord’s love for me. For decades I had begged God to deliver me from my eating disorders and clinical depression. They were taking a toll on my relationships, and I felt like even God had given up on me. I prayed, “God, I’m constantly letting people down, including myself. From now on, I’m going to focus on your love for me.”

Something changed when I heard myself speak with certainty of God’s love for me. In a powerful way I knew my heavenly Father loved me and was on my side. I knew that God never had and never would give up on me. I no longer felt that God was exasperated with me — I sensed God’s tenderness.
