God Isn’t Worried About Your Sin

Prefer listening? Hit play and follow along.

This is just a quick note to let you know that God isn’t focusing on your sin. He just wants to be close to you. He’s obsessed with you. He can’t stop thinking about you. You are his favorite! We all are.

The Devil wants you to keep thinking about your sin. God wants you looking at him, not yourself.

If you’ve given your live to God, your sins have been dealt with, and you now wear the robe of righteousness. You appear blameless in God’s sight if you have given your sins to Jesus to take care of – past and future sin. So, be happy and joyful – you are free!

If you haven’t yet accepted this free gift from God that cannot ever be earned. I invite you to do it now. You don’t have to get clean first to come to God. Let me say that again another way… you do not first have to get clean before going into a shower. Come to Jesus, give your sins to him, and he will clean you up. It might take some time, but do not worry about that. Accepting the free gift of salvation puts you in God’s family, under his protection, and you are now a royal citizen of heaven – something you did not earn, but a free gift that has been given to you.
