Maybe someone has wronged or hurt you. If so, take it to God. Let Him deal with it. Your job is to heed His call to love and forgive that person and not to avenge yourself.

Here’s why: That bitterness and hatred will do more harm to you than to the person you’re directing it toward. It will eat you up inside. It will destroy your life. It will hinder your time of prayer with God. It will hinder your worship. It will, for all practical purposes, act as an obstacle in the relationship God wants to have with you.

There’s no room for hatred, bitterness, or prejudice in the heart of a child of God. God wants our love to be honest and without hypocrisy. That’s the kind of love that changes lives and changes the world.

“If someone says, ‘I love God,’ but hates a fellow believer, that person is a liar; for if we don’t love people we can see, how can we love God, whom we cannot see? And he has given us this command: Those who love God must also love their fellow believers.”

—1 John 4:20–21

If I die tomorrow, I'll be with Jesus. If I live tomorrow, Jesus will be with me. Either way, I belong to the Lord. I'm thankful for that. Amen.

You don’t have to sit in a pew every Sunday to be loved by God.
You don’t have to look like the “perfect church girl” to belong to Him.
No spotless past.
No perfectly filtered life.
No checklist that suddenly makes you worthy.
Because somewhere along the way, people made it seem like being a Christian meant you had it all together…
like you don’t mess up, don’t struggle, don’t fall back into old habits.

But that’s not the truth.
The truth is,
you will mess up.
you will have days where your faith feels weak.
you will fall short more times than you can count.
And God already knew that.
He knew every mistake you’d ever make…
every moment you’d feel too far gone…
every time you’d question if you’re even “good enough” to come back.

And still—He chose you.

Still—He made a way for you.

Still—He says,
“Come to me.”

Not when you’re perfect.
Not when you finally get it right.
Not when you clean yourself up.

Right now.

In your mess.
In your doubts.
In your not-good-enough moments.

Because being a Christian was never about being perfect…
it was always about being His.
