Beloved Quotes

“So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him. By this is love perfected with us, so that we may have confidence for the day of judgment, because as he is so also are we in this world. There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love. We love because he first loved us. (1 John 4:16–19)”

“abiding in the love of God frees us from all insecurity and leads us into a lifetime of joyful, worshipful obedience.”
― Francis Chan, Beloved

“You are loved by God, not for what you do, not because you've earned it, but because He chose to set His affection on you before the foundation of the world. This love is not fleeting or conditional, it's not based on your performance or dependent on your perfection. It's as eternal and unchanging as God himself. When your love grows cold, His remains constant. When you feel alone, He is still with you. When the enemy attacks, God fights for you. My prayer for you, beloved, is not that your life would be easy, but that it would be anchored. Anchored in the love of the Father, who gave his Son for you. Anchored in the grace of Jesus, who died and rose again for you. Anchored in the power of the Spirit, who lives and works in you. Be loved, beloved. Not just today, but forever.”
― Francis Chan (Author), Beloved
