Though this is a point that we all very familiar with, I still really wanna share/remind you guys about it. Since love for God is one of the fundamental in our walk with God, it cannot be more emphasized that God truly loved us, way beyond any human can love another.
Romans 5:7-8
"Very rarely will anyone died for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us."
You've read it, but do you truly, deeply understand how much God loves us? Not to say anything to anyone, but how many of us will without hesitation willingly sacrifice not ourselves, but our most beloved persons, to save people in the wrong? To be honest, I think I can never do that. To put it in an analogy, it's like when your kids fell into the ocean, and you can only save either your son or the terrorist that bombed the ship. Yet God made the choice, and he sacrificed His son to save us, a bunch of sinners. Can anyone in this world, ever make such a decision? I definitely can't.
Now you're reminded, our lives and chances are bought. It isn't free thus it's only right that we do our part to thank the One who sent His son, and Jesus, for giving his life. We can do this by living righteous lives and seeking God with all our heart.
I'm sharing this because I've realised that I've sinned a whole lot in my life and today as well, so much that I'm also quite sickened with myself, much less other people. But God doesn't shun me because I'm a sickening piece of crap. He doesn't love me less because I don't fulfil his expecations. And not just me, but also people who may be in a worse situation than myself. And when I think of how He has always loved each and everyone of us all, and there's no way I can truly be like Him in this aspect, that's when I realise how great and wonderful He is, and aim to be like Him.
