DAY 23: Dear Anyone...

A LETTER TO SOMEONE, ANYONE

Dear Anyone or Everyone,

God is not who you think He is. He is not a load of dos and don'ts, He is not a church with stained glass windows or a choir singing 'boring' hymns. God is not what the world may think, He is so much more. 

God wants a relationship with you and when we sinned at the beginning of time and when we choose to sin every day, we take away the intimacy that God wants with us. This is why He sent His only son to die for us, for our sins. Jesus dying and rising again allows us to draw close to the Father again. Through Jesus death has been conquered and we can find life in Christ.

You may think that church is an old building, that it is boring, that you have to believe in God and follow all His rules and always do good, but that is not the case, that is not what God wants with you, He doesn't want a religion, He wants a relationship, He wants to be your father and best friend.

All God wants, is for you to want Him like He wants you. He made you for Him, so why wouldn't He want a relationship with you. 

God is love and kindness. He is there when you need Him on your worst day, but also there on all of your best days. He is always ready to listen and always ready to just sit with you. He knows when you are sad and it breaks Him when you are. God will love you even if you have done your absolute worst. I know of people who have ended up in prison and done awful things and yet found Christ and forgiveness while in their cell. 

You may wonder "If God is so loving, why are there kids dying and starving around the world?" well, that my friend, is called evil. The devil still lives in the world and is causing trouble all the time. We have to choose God, we have to choose to love and have love. When we pray, the Lord answers and evil is conquered.

God is not who you think He is, He is so much more.

Lots of love,

BeeBee
