HESED = HEBREW FOR STEADFAST LOVE

BREAKDOWN OF THE MEANING OF HESED:

Steadfast = resolutely or dutifully firm and unwavering
Love = an intense feeling of deep affection

So then Hesed resembles God’s firm and unwavering, intense and deep love for us.

-a redeeming, strong, merciful, kind, good, faithful LOVE

Steadfast love is found in the scripture over 200+ times throughout scripture.

Hesed is found in old testament as steadfast love.
It is found in the new testament as steadfast, love, kindness, mercy, and more.
It’s explains the depth and riches of God’s love for his people – us.

Hesed is the mission behind God’s work of salvation for us, even admist our undeserving.

It is His hesed that reaches down to us sinners and gives us a free gift of grace.

It is His hesed that sent us His Son as the atoning sacrifice for us.

It is His hesed that fills the gap and our need to be redeemed, restored and forgiven for our sins, through FAITH.

It is His hesed that means not even one of us, one sheep, will ever be snatched from our Father’s merciful and loving hand.

-John 10:27-30 “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father's hand. I and the Father are one.”

Trust. We can rely on the steadfast love of God each and every day.

God’s hesed towards us is simply because we are His children. It is not and never will be based on our status or significance, career, money or good works, the list goes on…

All we have to do is ACCEPT HIS LOVE and let the peace of His saving grace run through our veins and put our hearts at true rest.

His hesed last forever, brings peace, draws us to Him, give us life and comfort and mercy, it allows us to be heard, it is poured out by Him to us, and it gives us life everlasting. Because no matter our sins, we are forgiven. For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith (Ephesians 2:8-9).

I encourage you to truly dwell in the wonders of God’s hesed. Soak it up. Pray over it. Rejoice in it. Let it work in your hearts. And live in peace knowing God is good. He is in control and has our best interests at heart. That He knows. HE is GOD and we are only human. Grab His hand and let Him lead your steps through all the hills and valleys of life, friend <3

with so so much overflowing love,

“I started working out with Addy from home when I fractured my wrist and needed surgery. I wanted to do what I could to keep working other muscles in my body while my wrist healed. My overall strength improved as my wrist improved and thanks to Addy, I was able to complete a Spartan Super event just 3 months later, which included several upper body obstacles! I really appreciate the warm up, cool down stretches and the flexibility and mobility that was regularly worked into all the workouts. I feel like I was kinder to my body with Addy as my trainer, and I learned how to work my body effectively without pushing too hard and overdoing it. Her workouts helped me see the value of quality over quantity, and of being more intentional in my movements.

— Tresa M, 1:1 Online Training

— Olivia S, 1:1 Online Training

"Add to Life has been a huge help in improving my overall health and wellness. The accountability and support is amazing! I love having the option to workout from home and that each workout takes me about 25-35 minutes. I enjoy the different workouts each day; yet love the consistency of doing the same/similar movements each month - helps me stay confident and focused on doing each movement correctly! I have been following a training program by Addy for several months and have noticed my strength improving and feeling more toned.”
