This morning as I was looking for just the right picture for a thought inspired by my hubby the other day, I came across this video. Watch it and then consider this: when we--as God's children--mess up, when we are so dirty and covered with sin, and then, when we fall and need a hand up, a kiss to make it better, a comforting hug to show us we matter, does God turn us away? Unh unh. He most certainly does not! As parents and grandparents, we see and practice this kind of love each day. Yeah, we get a little messy and irritated sometimes to have our pretty messed up but God? He loves us whatever state we are in. Our sins won't mess up His carpet nor will we see Him surreptitiously wiping away the potential stain our ugliness leaves behind. Jesus' blood already did that.
Am I then saying it's okay to play in the mud of the world just because the blood of Christ will make us white as snow? Hardly. But what I am saying is that when we play around with sin and need cleansed, He's waiting there for us. Don't let your nastiness prevent you from seeking the comfort and security that Christ provided for us. He's not afraid of getting you on Him in order for you to get Him living inside of you. <3
