24 / 7

Jacob cheated. Peter had a temper. David had an affair. Jonah ran from God. Paul was a murderer. Gideon was insecure. Thomas was a doubter. Sarah was impatient. Elijah was depressed. Zacchaeus made money illegally.

And yet, God loved them all, unconditionally. His love was not based on their religious theatrics or their heart-felt devotion.

Why then, would we assume that God’s love towards us is based on our actions, especially now that the price for the sins of the whole world has been paid by Christ Jesus on the cross?

 


Life would be a lot lighter when we are not so self-focused.

Be free from the yoke of trying to impress God.

We are loved, 24 hours a day and 7 days a week.
