I know this Guy and He wants you to get to know Him too. (Notice the capitalization? That’s just how special He is.)
He writes you love letters that are signed with His name at the bottom, but you always return to sender. He looks out for you but you call it luck. He has a whole love story written out for you, but you call it a fairy tale.
Dash out your criticism and step out on faith. This Guy that I’m talking about is Jesus Christ. He came on earth, got lash after lash…physically…verbally…just for you. I’m telling you, He adores you. He knew you before you were even conceived. He literally positioned the stars in the vast skies AND knows you by your name, your heart. He willingly gave Himself up to die for you. That’s how beautiful He thinks you are. That’s how worth it He knows you are.
You are more than your past mistakes. You have a better future ahead. I’m not saying it’s going to be easy. But, I’m saying I’m the happiest I’ve ever been with God in my life.
Entry into what you know as the “pearly gates” is not gained through good deeds. It is granted through faith in the Son.
And, in a life full with uncertainty, wouldn’t you want something or someone constant no matter the circumstance? Isn’t it better to live a life of belief than die and realize too late?
Think about it. He thinks of you.
James 4:14: “How do you know what your life will be like tomorrow? Your life is like the morning fog–it’s here a little while, then it’s gone.”
Amen
