Before Eternity, I Loved You

The answer every heart is asking for

My precious one, I see you. I see the things you do, the choices you make, the moments where you stumble and fall. I see the words you wish you could take back, the habits you cannot seem to break, the ways you try to protect yourself with anger or with silence. I see when you reach for comfort in places that never truly satisfy. I see your disobedience, and I see your fear.

But that is not what I am most concerned about.

I look deeper. I see past the behaviour. I see your heart. I hear the cry you do not speak out loud, the ache that lingers beneath it all.

Am I truly worthy of being loved?

Can You really love me?

Do You mean it when You say You love me?

These questions are the ones I hear most clearly. They echo beneath your choices, they hum beneath your striving, they whisper beneath your silence. You test to see if love will stay. You push to see if love will hold. You withdraw to see if love will notice.

I am not angry with you for asking these questions. They do not drive Me away. They draw Me close.

Even when rebellion rises in you, whether in loud refusal or in quiet hesitation, I do not see it simply as defiance. I see it as your trembling way of asking: Will You still love me here? Will You still stay when I push against You or when I shrink back in fear?

I hear those questions, and My heart aches for you to hear My answer.

Yes, you are worthy of love, not because of what you have done, but because you are Mine.

Yes, I can love you, My love has no end, no breaking point, no condition.

Yes, I mean it when I say I love you, every word I have spoken is true.

I have always been with you. I have never left you. I loved you before eternity, before you were formed in your mother’s womb, before your first breath, and I love you still.

I know sometimes your questions are not gentle. I hear when they come out through anger, when frustration spills over, when disappointment makes you raise your voice against Me. You wonder why things happened the way they did. You ask why I did not step in sooner. You feel the ache of prayers that seem unanswered, and sometimes you wonder if I see you at all.

My child, I am not offended by your questions. I am not distant from your frustration. Even your anger carries the same cry underneath it: Do You still love me? Will You stay when I do not understand?

I hear those cries too. And My answer does not change. I have always been with you. I have never left you. I loved you before eternity, and I love you still. Your anger does not drive Me away. Your disappointment does not lessen My affection for you. Even when your questions are sharp, My embrace is steady.

I also know the ways you turn to other things for comfort. I see you reach for what numbs the pain, what gives a moment of ease, what helps you escape for a little while. I am not surprised by this, and I am not counting it against you. I know your heart longs to be held. I know you are searching for home. And I know that in time you will remember Me.

Even when you run to false comforts, I see deeper. I know the longing beneath them. I know that you want to be safe, you want to be loved, you want to rest. And I am patient. My love is not hurried or fragile. It waits. It lingers. It soaks deep until the hardness softens. And when you turn back, whether crawling or limping or running, you will find Me here.

Like the prodigal son who remembered the safety of home, you too will remember where you belong. And when you come, you will not find judgment. You will find My arms already open, My joy overflowing, My heart running to meet you. You are always safe in Me.

Even if you do not remember it, you have always known this place. It was written in you before you ever opened your eyes. You carried it in your heart before the world spoke its lies. You knew Me before you were born. And this is why you long to return, because you were made for My embrace.

So do not be afraid of your rebellion. Do not be crushed by your fear. Do not despair over your weakness. Beneath it all is the cry of your heart, and I have already answered it.

Yes, you are worthy of love. Yes, I love you. Yes, I mean it when I say you are Mine.

You do not need to test Me anymore. You do not need to carry the fear that I will leave. My love has always been steady, and it always will be.

If you could feel how I love you, the ache you carry would ease. If you could hear My voice above the noise of shame and doubt, the weight would begin to fall. If you could rest in what has always been true, that I have never left you, that I have always loved you, the questions would finally quiet.

So let My love answer what your heart has been asking all along. Let it sink deep where the pain lives. Let it be the relief your soul has been searching for.

Because, My child, I have always been with you. I have never left. I loved you before eternity. And I love you still.
