I heard someone say these words the other day, "live to be worthy of God's love."
Now on the front those words sound kind of sweet and positive, but think about it. God won't love you unless you are worthy of it? Jesus taught and practiced the exact opposite.
All were welcomed by Jesus, all were worthy to stand and sit with him. No one had to prove themselves worthy.
When will Christians get it right???
Instead of saying that we should live to be worthy of God's love, I suggest that we say this... "live as though you know that you are loved. In all of your brokenness, in all of your hurts. Our Father loves us and walks with us."
It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
