TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:
āWhile he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him.ā
Luke 15:20, NIV
TODAY'S WORD:
Most of the time, we believe that God loves us as long as weāre making good decisions, resisting temptation, and treating people right. But there will be times when you compromise, times when you have doubts, times when you fail. When we donāt perform perfectly, itās easy to think that God is far from us.
I say this respectfully, but sometimes religion pushes people down. It says, āIf you make poor choices, youāre on your own.ā But the truth is that when you fall, God doesnāt turn away from you. He comes running toward you. When you blow it, God doesnāt say, āToo bad. You had your chance.ā Rather, He comes after you with a greater passion. When you make a mistake, God loves you so much that He pursues you. He wonāt leave you alone until He sees you restored and back on the right course. Thatās the mercy of God coming after you. God loves imperfect people.
PRAYER FOR TODAY:
āFather, thank You that Your love and forgiveness are not based on my performance but upon the fact that I am Your child. Thank You that You love me, imperfect as I am, and that every mistake Iāve made and ever will make has already been paid for in full. In Jesusā Name, Amen.ā
