DORKS and SORKS



See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called the children of God! And that is what we are! ... (1 John 3:1, NLT)






I'm a dork. Yes, that's right. I'm a dork, or more like a D.O.R.K - A Daughter of the Risen King. Some of you can attest that I am also a dork, but that's another story. I'll save that one for another time. I have a very powerful Father, who loves me unconditionally, despite my weaknesses, failures, slip ups, mess ups, mistakes, and all around dorkiness (if that is even a word). He loves me despite my unloveliness at times. He says there is nothing I can ever do to lose his love. He will always love me, no matter what happens. He also says that nothing and no one can ever take his love away from me. He loves me exactly the same all the time, even when I am not loving towards Him. (Romans 8:35-39) He waits faithfully for me every day to come and spend some time with him and he is not mad when I fail to show up. He still loves me despite my unfaithfulness. He has given me such extravagant gifts and he lavishes them on me freely. I don't have to do anything to earn them, because I can't earn them. He is love. He is merciful. He is just. He is faithful. He is forgiving. He is truth. He is grace. All these amazing gifts, he has given to me with no strings attatched. He won't take those away either. He. Loves. ME. ALL THE TIME. He is good all the time! I am precious in his sight. (Isaiah 43: 1-7) He considers me his most prized posession. I am his special treasure (Deuteronomy 7:6) He will never leave me, or abandon me, or forget about me. He is always with me. He will always be with me. He helps me up when I fall and he shows me which way I should go. I have the best Father, ever! I have many brothers and sisters, he loves us all the same. Perhaps you are a DORK too! .... or a SORK... but that's not a word. If it was, it would be an awesome one though....
