This year we must realize that our perspective can flip the script. This past week I was having some time in worship and I fell to my knees and I was overwhelmed with God’s holiness, his perfection and began to feel just so unworthy of His love and goodness towards me. I looked within and just knew I was a sinner. I began to cry out to him, I am unworthy of your love, your goodness, I am far from perfect and I don’t deserve you. I began to tell him, please still love me, accept me, choose me and forgive me for all of my humanity. I want to be close to you, I want to be with you in eternity and I am trying my best here on earth to please you. I was in tears. Have you ever felt this way? Like you love God so much and want nothing more than His love, but yet feel so unworthy as you look within? If so, you’re not alone, in fact God honors your humility. And what was so crazy is God answered my thoughts about what I was feeling instantly. The next song and lyrics that came on were the ones I quoted above. And I began to cry as I felt his Fathers heart, embrace and reassurance of His love for me. I felt so loved and wanted in that moment regardless of my unworthiness. He still wanted me and He still wants you.
