Read Through the Bible in a Year 2018 Day 273: Malachi

Good morning, everyone!

Today I read Malachi 1-4.

In today's reading, God declares that He has loved His people, but they have doubted it and turned from Him (Malachi 1:2).

And that's what I want to focus on today.

Don't we all feel that way sometimes? Or is it just me?

Sometimes I doubt God's love for me. Sometimes I feel so messed up, so engulfed by trouble that I forget how much He loves me.

And He does love us. Each of us. All of us. So very much.

But that's easy to forget when one thing after another is going wrong.

And there's no easy solution. No easy way to remember that God loves us and will take care of us. 

Some days it's easy to get back where I'm supposed to be. 

Other times, it takes an act of rebellion to truly break me and remind me that I don't want to be that person anymore because I have experienced God's enduring love.

Do you ever forget how much God loves you?

If so, how do you remind yourself? 

Or was this the reminder you needed today?

Speaking of God's love, this post finishes the Old Testament books, and tomorrow we're moving on to the gospels!

If any of us need a reminder of God's love, we'll find it there.

I hope you'll join me tomorrow when I read Matthew 1-4.
