A mistake?

So this morning when I sat down to spend some time with God, I was supposed to read Revelation 4. So I opened my bible and started reading. When I got to the questions in my devotional I was a little confused but answered them nonetheless. It wasn't until I was looking for my random daily verse that I realized I had spent time reading 1 John 4 and not Revelation 4. For those of you who don't know, the first part of 1 John 4 is about testing the spirits and the second part is about God's love and our love.

I was reading and quickly taken back to Mexico where I truly experienced that God is Love! Verse 10 says "This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins." How amazing is God's love for us? No matter how much we screw up in life he loves us no questions asked. Verse 19 says "We love because he first loved us." I want to lead a life of love and integrity.

So was this a mistake today? NO! I needed to be taken back to Mexico and I needed to read up on how much God loves me. He's my Abba.

May you feel God's undeniable love for you today!!

And as a side note, I'm completely obsessed with Shawn McDonald's cd "Simply Nothing"!!
