You don’t know

“I want to be a Christian but you don’t know what I’ve done. You don’t know who I am. You just don’t understand that God could never love me.”

I have heard that so many times.

A lot from myself actually. God could never love me.

It was ingrained in me that I was never enough.

While I will never deserve God’s love? I applied this to my everyday life and allowed things to happen to me that shouldn’t have. I tried things I shouldn’t have. Addictions were created. Lies were said. My marriage almost destroyed.

All because it was ingrained in me….I am not worth of anything.

As a child of God? I couldn’t see the love that God had to offer. I was pushing away the idea that God loved me because I was concentrating so much on how i was unlovable. How evil I was.

Thats not the point friend.

No matter what you have done….whatever you will do….God loves you DESPITE those things. 1000000% you do not deserve this love at all. Not at all. No one does.

But?

They refused to obey,

And they were not mindful of Your wonders

That You did among them.

But they hardened their necks,

And ^[a]in their rebellion

They appointed a leader

To return to their bondage.

But You are God,

Ready to pardon,

Gracious and merciful,

Slow to anger,

Abundant in kindness,

And did not forsake them.

Nehemiah 9:17 (emphasis mine)

What do you do to deserve that love? Nothing. There is not a blessed thing in this world that you can do to deserve that love. God gives it to us freely.

What do you have to do?

Confess your sins, admit you need a savior and accept God into your life. Thats it.

wanna talk more about that? Lets talk.
