"Because I Said So"

Mom: "Go clean your room." Child: "Why?" Mom: "Because I said so." Nowadays, this is not something that you wanna hear. Because usually, it pertains to something similar to the above text. It is a command, and not a fun one. But try this on for size: Person 1: "How is it possible that I deserve such a love?" Person 2: "Because I said so." Person 1: "How is it that 'I am'?" Person 2: "Because I said so." Person 1: "How can we possibly have overcome this world?" Person 2: "Because I said so." Are you getting the picture? It's not hard to guess who persons one and two are. We, followers of Christ, are person one. And of course, God himself is person two. I have to believe that it breaks God's heart when we ask thse questions time and time again. He's up there saying 'Don't they realize how precious they are, more precious than gold?? Think about that. More precious than gold?? I don't know about you, but Amen. We are, because He says so. We have overcome, because He says so. We deserve Him, because He says so. This is no longer a command, but the deepest expression of love from a Father that loves his children. Thanks ya'll!!!
