“I know many people and even myself, at times feel unworthy of the Lord’s grace and mercy. Amen. Not because we doubt our salvation, for it is sealed. Amen. But sometimes in the everyday moments of life the mistakes, the mishaps, the conversations, and the choices we make that we know may not be the best we fail, we falter, and we overthink it all. In those moments, we can begin to feel unworthy or even forsaken for a time. We struggle to grasp who we are, who we think we should be, how we should live, and how we should conduct ourselves.

We can go on and on about what needs to be done or how we need to be, because we all live life from different perspectives. We all have different views of what is right and wrong. Amen.

But how many of you know that my heart and prayer this morning is that we all know the Lord Jesus for who He is and that we each have a personal relationship with Him. I pray that we know that we are worthy. Amen. The Lord is kind, caring, and loving toward us, even when we do not measure up to what society says we should be, or even what family and friends may expect of us. Amen.

For can I tell you something? God wants us just as we are. He knows our quirks. He knows our mistakes. He knows our attitudes. He knows our thoughts, the Bible says, “from afar off” (Psalm 139:2). Amen. He knows that we are not perfect. He knows us from the beginning to the very end. And even through all of that, He still chose Calvary for me, for you, and for whosoever will call upon His name (Romans 10:13). Amen. That alone is amazing. Amen.

But what I want us all to know is that no matter how many times we mess up, no matter how many bad thoughts we have, and no matter how many wrong things we do even when we never intended for them to happen I pray that we never run away from the Lord during those times. Instead, may we stay close to Him. May we never reach a place where we walk away from Christ, because Jesus is our only hope in this life.

He loves us regardless, and for our carnal minds, it can be difficult to comprehend that kind of love because people often do not love that way. But Jesus does. He loves us always.

So understand that we are going to make mistakes. We are going to stumble and sometimes act in ways we wish we hadn’t. But that does not mean we are beyond God’s love or that we do not deserve His presence. God wants us in the middle of our messes and mistakes. He is still there with open arms, willing and ready for us to come to Him and ask for forgiveness.

It’s really not complicated. Just stay close to the Lord. Do not leave His side. Amen. For the Bible says that though a righteous man falls seven times, he rises again (Proverbs 24:16). Amen.

We learn through the falls in life. We grow through our mistakes. We rise through our failures. We mature. And in the process, we learn not only to extend grace to ourselves, but we also learn just how much Christ loves us through it all. Amen.

So today, if you find yourself in a place where you feel unworthy, please do not run away from the Father run to Him. Scripture tells us that we are to come boldly to the throne of grace so that we may obtain mercy and find help in our time of need (Hebrews 4:16). Amen!

And if you do not remember anything else I’ve written today, I pray you remember this: Jesus loves you always and forever. Nothing can separate you from Him or from His love (Romans 8:31–39). Praise the Lord!

So let that sink deep into the very depths of your soul Jesus Messiah King of Kings and Lord of Lords Creator of the whole wide world..loves you! Amen!”

“For it is in His name, Jesus’ name, that I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi ❤️
