Cutting the Strings

Our Heavenly Father is so unconditional in His love for us, that He attaches no strings. None.

Let that sink in...

Because we on the other hand, are so conditioned to attach something.

We play love like a marionette.

We base love on actions and reactions.

But God is God. And He is good.

Nothing we do or don't do adds to His devotion.

Can you grasp that, today?

Your moral behaviour adds nothing, and your immoral behaviour takes nothing away.

Your love and affection for God adds nothing to His love and affection for you, and your lack of it takes nothing away.

His love is unconditional. No strings attached.

It's time we cut off the lies in our lives. The ones that bind up truth.

We hear them being whispered, sneaky and quiet...

"God can't love you, you're a failure"

"God can't love you, you're an addict"

"God can't love you, you have nothing to offer"

But the truth is your worth is not based on your abilities to produce anything.

There is nothing we can do to earn the love of God. It simply is.

Let the grace of God wrap itself around you, today.

Grace cuts the strings.

In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

(1 John 4:10)
