(Romans 5:8 ESV)
“But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”
“The Lord your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing.”
(Zephaniah 3:17 ESV)
Have you ever wondered why God loves you? Or why does He keep loving us after all we have done?
I have given God one million reasons why He shouldn’t love me. But yet He still does.
I have walked away from church, still, He loves me.
I haven’t read my Bible as much as I should. He still loves me.
I let anger and disappointment get to me. He still loves me.
I let resentment and hatred in. He still loves me.
I don’t pray as often as I should. He still loves me.
I don’t pray in tongues as much as I should. But, yep. He still loves me.
I love God with all my heart. I trust Him completely. I lack faith at times, but I’m working on it. But I still let things in. I don’t do it intentionally, but God still loves me and will help me get rid of unwanted critters trying to get a stronghold on me.
It doesn’t matter if you are the best person around. God loves you. It doesn’t matter if you are the worst person around. Yep. You got it. God still loves even you. So turn to God. Ask His forgiveness. He will forgive even the worst sin. Because He loves you.
So even if you also have given God one million reasons not to love you. Don’t worry. He still loves you.
Have a great day, everyone. God loves you, and so do I.
