FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION

"People come up with all kinds of ideas about what God wants for them and requires of them and those people entice us with eternal rewards or threaten his wrath and judgement if you do not comply. But the truth is God has only imparted his love to us. We know this because even when we were still sinners Christ loved us so much he died for us. How much more then will he shower us with his love as his children. My guess is, you worry too much about your relationship with God and while that shows you have a great desire to please him I believe God wants you to know that he is already pleased with you because of who you are not because of what you do. So I encourage you to stop performing for something you already have. Stop Living for the Lord and let the Lord live through you, I guarantee it is much easier and so much more effective. "
