#14 God Loves You

GOD LOVES YOU

Do you ever feel like God is disappointed with you? Or like you’re having a hard time making him happy? Or keeping him happy? Even after you confess your sins do you still feel guilty? Have you ever felt like you need to make it up to God when you sin? Or you can’t pray or expect a blessing until you’ve been more faithful in obeying God? I have and almost everyone I’ve ever taught has too. 

But how do those feelings fit with the biblical truth that God loves you? So many people live with the right doctrinal belief about God, but struggle with a mental picture of a God who is judgmental, disappointed or just distant. God wants our hearts above all things So if we’re ever going to do the great commandment and love God with all our heart, we have to come to grips with the love of God. Stay tuned and I’ll show you what I mean.
