Our faith begins and ends with the love of God. In the face of life’s struggles, how deeply we need to trust in a love greater than ourselves—a love we can count on to hold us, to never let us go, and to instill in us a worth that our best efforts can never earn and our worst failings can’t diminish.That’s the love God has for you. It’s a love that delights in you, cherishes the simple things that give you joy, meets you in the sorrows no one else can touch, and whispers your name in unguarded, unexpected moments. No one else knows you like your heavenly Father, and no one else loves you as wisely, powerfully, and completely.With sensitivity and insight, Women of Faith authors share devotional reflections on the character of God’s heart. Distilled from the Bible’s timeless truths and the experiences of everyday life, these meditations are like precious notes from your Father revealing the nature of his love for you. It’s a love that is . . . Boundless—overflowing toward you with no danger of ever running out Fearless—unafraid of the worst in you, confident of the best in you Stubborn—refusing to ever give up on you Lavish—holding back nothing of its best treasures from you Outlandish—proving its character in wild, impossible ways Intentional—devoting its every act to your highest goodIn the words of Sheila Walsh, “Our prayer as we sat down to write this book to you was that you would know you are loved--boundlessly, fearlessly, stubbornly, lavishly, outlandishly, intentionally--by the God of the universe, the One who created you and calls you by name.
