Because He Loves Me

From Because He Loves Me (Elyse Fitzpatrick, Crossway, 2008) pp. 75-76:

When your heart accuses you and says, “You’re so worthless.  Look at the way you’ve failed him again!”  you can confidently answer, “It is true that on my own I am worthless, but he has made me completely righteous in his Son.  He has declared that he loves me and his love is now the most important thing about me.  I believe that he won’t stop loving me until he stops loving his own Son.  I can begin to serve him again because I know he is here, with me, sustaining me and granting me his grace.

Much needed words for me today.
