Read: Luke 15:8–10
This is how God feels about us. He knows that we have all messed up and sinned. We have all walked away from what He desires for us. However, because He loves us, and because we are so valuable to Him, God sent His Son, Jesus, to die on a cross to ensure that we could have a relationship with Him. No matter how far we feel like we’ve strayed or how bad we think we’ve messed up and sinned, He wants us to come and talk with Him about it and ask Him to help us!.
