God loves us in spite of our mistakes

Daily Devotional Podcast. Follow along with blog post.
Do you know God loves us in spite of our mistakes? Do you know God loves us in spite of ourselves? And do you know that when we make a mistake and ask God for forgiveness, He will forgive us, because His love runs that deep?

This is it: Even though we fall short. Even though we made bad and downright stupid mistakes and choices, God still loves us. And God still wants to give us His best. He still has many blessings stored up for us, that our head would explode if we truly knew how extensive those blessings were. Honestly, we will never really know, because God's blessings are just too abundant and infinite for our minds to wrap around such a concept. We simply do not have the capacity to comprehend it. Nobody does. God is just too massive and beyond us to be able to know just how deep it goes. So if it’s any consolation to you, just be ok with knowing that there’s only one God of the universe who loves us and accepts every mistake you and I have made, the mistakes we make now, and the mistakes we will make tomorrow. 

And why would He do that you may ask? Well, because He created us in His own image (Genesis 1:27) and He knew us before we were born (Jeremiah 1:5). So why would He not love us even though we fell short yesterday, we fell short today, and we will fall short again tomorrow? You understand what I’m saying here? Ok here it is again: God loves us in spite of our mistakes. And He forgives us when we go humbly to Him to ask for forgiveness. So we have embrace that as we go forth in love while doing the great things we’re doing and the great things we will continue to do. God loves us in spite of our mistakes.

God blesses whomever he wants to bless, whenever he wants to bless them

Daily Devotional Podcast. Follow along with blog post. When I was going through a dark time -- when I had nothing -- there was a certain person who helped me sometimes. She helped me whenever she basically felt like it, but she did help, and for that I'm appreciative. But, something interesting happened after I started growing out of my despair. Something interesting started happening when I no longer needed her for anything. And something interesting happened even though I remained kind and grateful towards. The interesting thing that happened was that she started hating on me. She started treating me differently. At first I was really bothered by it, because I thought she and her husband were nice people I wanted in my life. I liked that they had a sense of compassion and were interested in helping people who were down and low. That really appealed to me, because I was raised that way; my mother was raised that way; her mother was raised that way, and it goes back to as fa

He has GREATNESS for you. Yes, YOU -- all of us. It's about doing what you can do and only you can do. You are the only one with your DNA -- none of us. is the same Yet, even when we're feeling down, discouraged, and out, those emotions are only temporary. None of us has it all together. Sometimes I procrastinate and put things off when I know I should be doing better. Yet, I am not as diligent and disciplined as I can be sometimes. Like when it comes to working out, I delay it, because I don't like it anymore. And although I love reading the bible, I haven't been reading it as often as I should lately. Yes, I, Sharon, the Faith Coach, do not do the things I'm supposed to do when I'm supposed to do them. And that my dear friends should not come as a shock to no one. It certa
