Screwed Up and Loved

Luke 12:22b "Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life."

- It's annoying to give God back the day. Annoying eh? What does that mean?

- I think the danger of living in this human body is we wake up and immediately we are starting the day conquering tasks and before we know it we are trying to conquer the world.

But Jesus tells us clearly DO NOT BE ANXIOUS ABOUT YOUR LIFE!

For me my anxiety is drawn by the fact that I am in a job concerned about whether I will have productivity. It is frustrating that I have already started my day in a position of control. Learning to be able to accept humility, and give me control to God is extremely rewarding.

John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life."

"Whoever," what a strong and powerful word. A word that has no restriction. A word which engulfs every living human being. A word that describes unconditional when it includes whenever.

Jesus still loves us even after the fact we do take control into our own hands. The beauty of Jesus is allowing mistakes, sin, screw-ups, but even more amazing is his ability to walk with us through it.
