I believe God wants
you to know ...
... that you are a
pure child of God, beautiful in your innocence -- and
That this is true no matter what you may have done.
That this is true no matter what you may have done.
There is no offense you
could ever commit that can rob you of your
magnificence, or of the
wonder of who you are. Yet who
among us hasn't fallen
from the path, betrayed another, acted
unwisely, fallen prey to
temptation, given in to a craving or addiction?
All of us are human. And
in God's eyes that makes us perfect.
Really. Just the way we
are. Like 3-year-olds, looking anxiously
up at some elder,
wondering with quivering lips whether we'll get
a spanking for breaking
the rules...
The 3-year-old is
beautiful in her innocence. He is pure as snow,
and there is simply
something that has not been totally understood,
or fully integrated into
behavior yet. It's okay. We don't mean to
be "bad." And in
truth, we aren't. Not a one of us.
We're simply, sometimes,
mistaken. And God loves us anyway.
Immensely. Completely.
Eternally.
Just
as we are.
Oh, and by the way, ...you
already know
the reason that this
particular reminder
came to you today...
