Realization

I'm beginning to realize how Jesus felt. To love someone so exceedingly that, no matter what they do, you can't help but forgive them. How love can override most things. That I could care about someone so greatly, that even when they break my heart. They easily put it back together by saying I'm sorry. That I could overlook flaws and see them as assets. That I could forgive so effortlessly. God loved. So He sent His only son, a part of Him, to die for us. You and me. Insignificant, despicable, humans. All because he loved so passionately, he forgave.

A way out

From almost the very beginning we have sinned. In the garden, when Eve took that single bite of fruit from the forbidden tree. Sin became part of the world. When God confronted Adam and Eve on the sin that they committed, neither took blame. Eve blamed the serpent, Adam blamed Eve. And therefore sin appeared. We as people blame everything on other people. We don't stop to think that maybe it is our fault. Jesus didn't blame us for OUR sin. He took full responsibility and punishment as He hung there by His hands and feet. A crown of thorns upon His head. Held up by only 3 nails on the cross. Blood pouring from his shredded body. Gashed and cut, bruised and broken. He took our sin and rewarded us for it. He loved us, and did not want to see us suffer. He gave us a way out.

He never leaves

I'm still learning about what I like, what I don't like. What I believe in, and what I don't. Who I think God wants me to be. And what he doesn't want me to be. What I'm suppose to do, and whats meant for other people. But through it all I have God! Forever, and ever. When everything goes wrong, I'll praise Him. When everything seems right, I'll praise Him. He'll never leave me, even when it seems like He has. I'll never doubt Him. For he never puts doubt in my mind.
