I know that I have both heard and said these things.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There was a time that I struggled with my salvation. There was a time that I struggled with believing that Jesus could love me. My father figure used to always say, \u201cThere are two teams. God\u2018s and Satan\u2018s.\u201d I know that to be right because I have played on both of them. I have been on both sides. And there\u2019s no way that I deserve to be loved by Jesus. Actually, none of us do. But that\u2019s what is amazing about God. His love and grace surpasses anything that we can ever dream or imagine. We can\u2019t earn it. We can\u2019t pay for it. We can\u2019t pretend we have it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How do we get it then? We have to believe. We have to believe in the sacrifice that was made for us. The sacrifice paved the way. Jesus did that. Plain and simple. He came to earth to show us how to serve. And he died for our sins. I was at the church that my son preaches at. And something he said resonated with me. I probably won\u2019t get it Word for Word. But this is the gist of it: \u201cGod loves you. God loves us all. And he\u2019s waiting for you to love him. He\u2019s there. If you\u2019re hearing anything different, you are listening to the wrong people.\u201d Wow! He is spot on. If people are telling you different, they are the wrong people. And if you believe anything different, you are wrong. Just as I was. God does love you. He always has. He always will.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cI don\u2019t deserve to be forgiven.\u201d \u201cHow can God love me when I\u2019ve done what I have done?\u201d \u201cI don\u2019t even go to church, or pray like I should.\u201d \u201cHeaven is for religious people.
