Oh Lord Jesus have mercy on these sinners!!!!
Hey! Guess what!!
Didja guess?
Guess.
Guess again.
Keep guessing, you’re way off.
Anyway, what I was actually gonna say is this.
We’re sinners saved by grace. We can accept Christ Jesus and have eternal life.
(Go google John 3:16)
For God so loved the world, that He sent Jesus, His one and only son. He sent Jesus to die. He sent him to this earth to experience pain, suffering, hatred, and the most horrible and degrading death ever. His only son. He sent His only son to die for your sins and mine. Two thousand years before we were born. Two thousand years before we sinned. We weren’t even alive and Jesus had you and me specifically on His mind when He died for us.
Jesus loves you.
I don’t care what anyone tells you or what anyone does to you.
But no matter what happens to you, no matter what you do or don’t do, Jesus loves you. And I do too.
For three simple reasons.
1: God says to love your neighbour as yourself.
2: God says to love your enemies and to pray for them.
3: If God can love someone who has sinned against Him to the point of turning away from Him (and He does) I can (and should) love anyone.
How does this help you?
Think about it.
You tell me.
No? Fine. It helps you because everyone needs to know that they are loved.
My challenge to you today is simply this.
Go tell someone that Jesus loves them and (if you mean it) that you love them.
If you can’t do that for whatever reason, I completely understand. Your challenge then, is this.
Go stand on your head.
Just kidding, it’s easier than that.
Write someone a letter.
Well that’s a super short post tonight!!! 😀

Honestly, I think they’re a bit better than this one. This one’s wacky. I’ve been trying to write a post all day. Since 6:30 this morning. It hasn’t been working….
Anyway, thanks if you keep reading all of this. 🙂
