Be Like Jesus

I am so glad

God does not keep track

Of when and where and

How often I think of Him,

Or ask Him to be the center of my life.

Yet He desires me to put Him at the center of my life.

But if I goof, He loves me anyway.

I am so glad that God does not
Expect me to be the center of His universe

Every minute,

Every hour,

Every day,

Every month,

Every year,

Every decade.

I don’t even manage to keep Him where He should be in my life

For even the smallest amount of time.

But He loves me anyway.

I am so glad that God

Forgives me seventy times seven –

Unlimited times.

Even when I do not always recognize

I’m doing wrong,

He forgives me anyway, and

He loves me anyway.

I am so glad that God says that if I believe in Him

And accept Him and strive to serve and worship Him

I do have eternal life.

And man’s judgments do not count,

‘Cause HE loves he anyway.

Do I/we/you love others as God loves us/you?

Do you love people anyway?

In spite of their goof-ups?

Their blunders?

Their inadequacies?

Their unbelief?

Their judgements?

We are called to love anyway! Smile!
