Day 44~ Come as you Are

God wants you.

Not only when you've put your pieces back together or when you get over your problems or addictions or when you start following him more diligently and read the Bible more often, no. 

He wants you right now, just as you are, even if you're broken and hurt, even if you're moral or immoral, even if you're bad or good, wherever on your spiritual journey you may be, even if you've been on it for years or only just begining; God wants you.

God doesn't care what you've done or haven't done, he doesn't care if others love or don't love you, he doesn't care if you've sinned one time or one billion times,  he still loves you as he did before you ever comitted any sins.

God doesn't mind if you have doubts, he will take you anyway.

He doesn't mind if you don't love yourself or your life, he will shower you with so much love that you will lack nothing.

God doesn't care what others think about you, he doesn't care about what the Devil accuses you of or what you think is wrong with you, he loves you anyway.

He knows what you've been going through, he can heal wounds that you've suffered from continuously for years; Earth has no sorrow that heaven can't cure.

Just as you are; battered and bruised, broken and scarred, in the sight of God, you are one in a million.

You don't have to be ashamed in God's presence; you don't have to carry the burdens of your sins, in fact, the penalty of your sins have already been taken care of; your ransom was paid long before you were born.

God doesn't  mind if you've made or are still making mistakes; he understands you.  

He knows why you've done what you've done and he accepts you anyway. 

He doesn't care about your race, your family background, level of success, amount of money in the bank, the way you speak, the way you look, God loves you, just as you are. 

His arms are open wide, he's ready to accept you whenever you want, so what are you waiting for? 

Go to him! He will rescue you, he will give you security and protection and peace and everything you could possibly need or want.

He is your Dad, your protector, your vindicator, your king, he is everything you want him to be and more. Trust him. Leave your life in his more than capable hands and surely goodness and mercy will follow you, all the days of your life.
