He wants not only us but everyone saved, you know, everyone to get to know the truth we've learned: that there's one God and only one, and one Priest-Mediator between God and us—Jesus, who offered himself in exchange for everyone held captive by sin, to set them all free. (1 Timothy 2:4-6 — The Message)
What Jesus did for you He wants to do for everyone—capture their hearts, heal and restore their hearts, comfort and mend the brokenness, and reveal to them who they really are. Jesus shows us our true heart and passions. He frees us to pursue those true desires and be exactly who He created us to be.
No one is too far gone to be reached by God. No one has done so much or something so bad that God cannot forgive them; that is a lie from the enemy. God does not quantify sin on a graduated scale, such as big” sin or “little” sin. All can be forgiven.
Every person that comes through the door of your church, every person that you see on the street, that homeless person, that drunk on the street, that hooker, that teen dressed in black with orange and purple hair, all of them are people that God loves and that Jesus died for. They don’t have to change a thing to come to Him. They just have to accept Him. Any changes that might need to be made God will make. We need to love them and relate with them as God loves and relates with us, with grace and compassion.
Praise God that anyone and everyone can be a part of His blessing and family!
Live intentionally, purposely, free and with passion,
