Hey Pat,I think you do well to wonder as you are. I would only hope that such wondering would cause you to be humbled and delight in the potter that has chosen to make you into a vessel of honor.

Just as the clay can not say to the potter why have you made me thus.It is not for the clay to say to the clay why has God made you as such.

Be thankful that you are whose you are.


God Bless,Steve

It is hard for me to accept who I am sometimes. I have done things
in the past that I am ashamed of. I even find myself wondering if
God loves everyone unconditionally. But I have to remind myself that
Jesus told us to (Agape) love our enemies, and if God loves his enemies
then He surely loves those who love Him!

Amen pat.

I believe that when Jesus Christ finaly shows us our nakedness, and shame, that we are truly begining to learn from Him. It's the beginning of A NEW LIFE, a NEW CREATURE in Christ. We are being made new, being made into His image.

There are many people who do not feel shame or remorse for what they do because they say 'God loves me as i am, and this is just who i am, i can't change myself so i should just accept what i have done and move on.'

True God does love us but He loves us because He sees who we are THROUGH CHRIST, WHO WE WILL BE. He doesn't LOVE the SINFUL CARNAL MIND we have in us, HE WANTS TO CHANGE THAT! However these people believe that. True we can't change who we are but GOD CAN, and WILL. These people come to a point where they don't even see that!

I don't look down on these people, because I STILL DO THIS, i am NO BETTER then them, but i sure am thankful in the mighty power that is watching over me, and that has promised to keep me and change me into the image of His Son. I am truly humbled, for i deserve Him not one bit.

With love to you,

Alex
