We need love. That is why people search for love in all the wrong places. We settle for the lust of others, like I did seeking it from boys, instead of the perfect love of God.
We needed to be reconciled to God. He sent Jesus. We needed to learn how to live again. He sent Jesus. We needed someone to take away our wickedness and sin. He sent Jesus.
We need God’s love.
God does not need ours.
God is perfect on his own. He is complete. He might be the glue that holds us together but we are not his glue. He is whole and complete.
God the Father
We are Children of God
Just like Children to our earthly parents, we mess up with our Heavenly Father. We make stupid mistakes and the best answer we have to why, is “I don’t know.” I believe that God the mighty and perfect Father allows us to suffer the consequences. I think God sends us to our rooms on occasion.
As a kid I got caught doing everything, or my older siblings blamed me, you know being the youngest and all. But I remember all to well the paddle that was in the basement.
This might sound weird, but I praise God for giving my parents the decernment to catch me. I would have tried to do so much more than I did. I always had the fear of getting caught, I never tried to get away with too much.
Recently, I was talking with my parents. My mom said that she knew about all of the things I thought I got away with. How I do not know how she knew but she did. My mom said she was waiting for me to tell her.
God already knows what we have done. He is waiting for us to tell him.
Confession
Telling God we screwed up. He already knows, you think it would be easy. One thing that will keep us away from confession is pride. We feel it when we accomplish something, our pride gets hurt when we are teased or abused.
Our pride keeps us from going to the Father.
