1. God loves us. No matter what we do or what we have done God will love us. God loves us more than we can ever imagine, and I think sometimes we take that for granite. Sometimes people think oh I shouldnt be doing this, but its ok God will forgive me! We sometimes get this idea that it is ok to sin, but make sure we ask for forgiveness. I very rarely find myself doing that, but sometimes I do. I think we should change this way of thinking, and be grateful for Gods love and mercy.
2. God knows all about us, and truly cares for us. God really has taught me through this that He knows everything about me (wether I like it or not) and He always will. There is no hiding from God. Hes not some creepy stalker, but he really cares for us. Gods love is amazing and should not be taken lightly. I feel like I got closer to God by learning this lesson.
3. We do not know our future, yet God does. I personally worry about the future all the time. I worry about what I am going to do with my life, college, having friends, and other stuff. However I need to stop this way of thinking. God knows the future and how it will all end up. I need to learn and trust that God will show me what to do at the right time.
4. The sheep in this picture is helpless. It needs help just like we need help. God helps us and is there for us when ever we need Him.God doesnt care what we need; He can help us. We are like the helpless lamb and God is the shepherd who guides and helps us through out all of our lives.
5. We do not know what life brings ahead, yet God does. He knows every thought before we think it and every word before we speak it. God knows everything that will happen to us. This picture reminds me of the promise God has made that he will protect us and give us what we need. Sometimes we are wrong in thinking what we need vs want. As Americans we want a lot more than we actually need. I have to remind myself sometimes if this is a need or want. God will always provide what we need.
6. God is indescribable. He loves us all so much. As a christian this picture reminds me to share the gospel. His mercy and grace shows through this picture. I cant imagine not knowing God. I need to go and share the good news with everyone.
