But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.Romans 5:8
It is a true statement no matter what you have done God still loves you and he still redeems and mends brokenness.You may have heard that there is no way God could love a serial killer, child molester, or a drag queen but guess what. Even though he doesn’t like their actions they can still be set free and saved by the blood of Jesus Christ that was shed for all sin. All have sinned and fallen short of God’s glory.
We love Grit TV and a recent episode of Bonanza the townspeople of Virginia City did not want to accept a released prisoner back into their community. He served his time but they couldn’t forgive or forget.
Lying is a sin all of us have done call it a white lie or half truth it is still a lie. Even the vilest of sinners still deserves God’s love and forgiveness. People may hold grudges but God doesn’t as He know all of us are broken in some way. What have you done that you think no way do I deserve God’s love? You may not deserve it but he gives it freely. Only humans cast stones.
PRAYER: Thank you for forgiveness even when I feel I don’t deserve it. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
