Have you ever felt desperate for love and approval? Have you ever felt as though you were constantly “jumping through hoops”? Just when you thought you had made the grade; you find that the hoop has been moved a bit higher! If our perspective of God is that He is a tough task master and we must constantly work for love and approval, we will eventually become exhausted and discouraged. As believers, we don’t work to earn the love of God, we do good works out of love for Him and all He has done for us. It is all about relationship!
