Many churches and preachers will tell you are worthless rags, scum and should feel lucky that God even thinks about saving you. That is all fine and well, except I don’t think God sees you that way. If you are still in the pain and suffering and haven’t discovered new life yet, it may be difficult to even believe God knows your name. All you hear is that God hates sin and sinners are going to burn in Hell. You don’t hear that God loves you and forget about Him actually speaking it to you. The bible tells us that God knows your name. He knows the number of hairs on your head. He loves you and cherishes you. Nothing you can do or have done can change that. We may be a bit banged up, but in God’s eyes we are always worthy of repair. We are like a Rolls Royce that has hit a tree.
We may need some fixing up but we are still infinitely valuable in God’s eyes.
