Since God is Love…Love is the beginning and the end.

Romans 11:32

For God delivered all to disobedience, that he might have mercy upon all.

God purposely made us imperfect knowing that we would disobey…so that God could show us love, mercy, forgiveness and compassion.

Life is not about us being perfect. That would set us up for failure.

It’s about us being perfectly loved by God.

It’s about us receiving love in our imperfection…and then sharing it.

That’s how you learn the depths of love. Someone has to model it to you.

God doesn’t love us because we are good but because God is good.

It is easy to love those who love you back…but what about those who don’t?

What about those who are hard to love because of their imperfections?

Being a Christian is not about being perfect but being in need of the Great Physician.

It is only when we experience the love and compassion of God in our imperfection that we can be transformed and be able to extend the same kind of love, mercy, forgiveness and compassion to others. 

As Jesus said, “When you hold a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind; blessed indeed will you be because of their inability to repay you” (Luke 14:13-14).

God is inviting you to the banquet. Invite someone else as well!
