“I’m sick of religion”

I say this often. Thank you, Marijo Mast for sharing!

Religion says I MUST do “this and that” if I’m to be loved of God.

Religion makes it about me.

It’s not about me at all, it’s ALL about Him.

Religion is wrong – God loves me already.

“Love is patient, love is kind.”
~ 1 Corinthians 13:4a (KJV)

“God is love”. ~1 John 4:8b

You know what changes my heart and draws me to Him? You know what keeps me from sinning? Realizing His KINDNESS.

When I REALLY see he loves me regardless, I am undone. Why should He love me like this?

Love is WHO God is. That will never change.

God’s love burns the sin right out of my heart. He makes His Will my desire.

Religion can’t do that.

So, if you think He can’t love you anymore because you’ve sinned too much? You are wrong. That’s religion.

Love is WHY Jesus came. He knew we needed Him to complete us.

He wants a relationship with you. He died for you! His blood saves, over and over. The finished work is ALREADY done.

Yes. Done forever.

“Christ suffered for our sins once for all time. He never sinned, but he died for sinners to bring you safely home to God. He suffered physical death, but he was raised to life in the Spirit.” 1 Peter 3:18 (NLT)

God is about RELATIONSHIP.

Do you BELIEVE in Him. Do you believe He is good?

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” ~ John 3:16

Run to Him now. He STILL loves you!
He’s loved you all along.
