just a little reminder...

 Jer. 31:3

"...Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love..."

"Though we are incomplete, God loves us completely. Though we are imperfect, He loves us perfectly. Though we may feel lost and without compass, God’s love encompasses us completely.

He loves every one of us, even those who are flawed, rejected, awkward, sorrowful, or broken. God’s love is so great that He loves even the proud, the selfish, the arrogant, and the wicked."                Elder Uchtdorf

life is tough.
at times, i get lost.

it's nice to have a reminder that 

He loves me no matter what.
