Once upon a time I didn't think the Lord was pleased with me. You see, I had made some mistakes. I had dropped the ball. And I had made some stupid decisions. I wasn't feeling too hot about myself either at that time, because I had disappointed even myself and I eventually forgave myself. I had too. So, I was wrong about God. He was still pleased with me even though I made mistakes, even though I dropped the ball, and even though I made some stupid decisions. I know that, because God has made me fearfully and wonderfully. Yes, Psalm 139:14 is proof of that. And I know it. I know it also because Romans 8:1 tells me there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. So, yes the Lord is pleased with me, that I know.
Do you realize He is also pleased with you? He is. Yes, I'm here to tell you that. I am here to tell you He is pleased with you, as well. He is pleased with the people who made mistakes, who dropped the ball, and who made some bad decisions. If that describes you too, well we're in the same boat and He has some great things in store for you and for me. So we are going to continue to feel good about ourselves no matter what happened or didn't happen. Yes, the Lord is pleased with me, that I know. We have to continuously say that over our lives...forever.
