God Wants You!

God wants you more than you ever imagined. God wants you so much that He sent His only Son to die in your place. "But," you say, "that was a long time ago!" Sure it was, but it’s still real today.

“I’m nothing,” you say.

God is everything.

“I’m everything,” you say.

God is more.

“I’m too old,” you say.

As long as there is life, there is hope.

“I’ve waited too long,” you say.

Only when you have crossed into eternity, will it be too late.

God has wanted you from day one – which is why He made you. That’s why He has preserved you amid every trial you’ve faced – He wants you. That’s why He’ll call until you take your last breath – because He wants you.

Don’t slam the doors in His face: open to His knock.

Don’t plug your ears: answer at His call.

Today is the day of salvation!

Jesus spoke to the unspeakable – The Samaritan Woman

Jesus forgave the unforgivable – The Woman in Adultery/Those at His Cross

Jesus reached the unreachable – The publicans and harlots

Jesus touched the untouchable – The lepers and unclean

Jesus heard those who could not speak, answered those who could not call, saw those who could not see, came to those who could not come to him, cleansed those who could not clean themselves. In everything, Jesus demonstrated His love for every human with whom he ever interacted. He went beyond every demand of duty and every claim of conscience to renew that which was destroyed, to restore that which was marred, to repair that which was broken. In short, “While we were yet sinners, Christ died for the ungodly.” He didn’t wait until we were perfect or clean. He came to make us what we ought to be. He came to change us from what we were into what we can be.

He sees a beautiful diamond to be polished. Granted, it may be in the rough, and some may require more polish than others may, but that is of little consequence in the eyes of God. He is abundantly capable of polishing your gemstone if only you’ll yield to His control.

Surrender to His embrace like that of a lover. Yield yourself to Him body, mind, and soul.
