God forgives us...
I truly believe that God forgives us. Even if we were to kill a jillion people, God would still forgive us. I remember thinking when I was really little that God did not like me anymore cause I told a lie, or stole something or was mean to someone even though they were mean to me first. I just knew God did not like me and was very annoyed with me and that He was very impatient with me cause I was a slow learner and could not remember things. I just knew that.
And then, way later in life...only a few years ago, I thought that maybe afterall God did love me. Cause...I had not killed a jillion peope...not even one that I can recall...so if He could forgive others, he might forgive me. So I asked Him to and he did...at least that is what I think and that is what my Heart tells me. And also...when I was little I did not feel very good about myself and this continued on and on through my life until just a few years ago. And yet somehow, when I came to the realization...the real realization that God did, infact, love me, everything really changed so that now I love myself and everyone else on the planet. I am not bragging or anything like that but just wanted for some reason to share this with you. I really like God a lot and He-She is my greatest friend and I love Her-Him a lot. And...I love all of God's children too...like you.
Love always, Jimi.
and ps...you can write back to me if you like.
This is very beautiful,
This is very beautiful, beloved Jim.
It's like God takes us to His heart but doesn't take what we may do to heart.
Somewhere there is a Heavenletter in which God tells us we're not wonderful to forgive.
So I imagine that God Who is consummate love has no need to forgive us.
Perhaps this could be put
Perhaps this could be put into a manual for parents.
Yes...
Yes...or it could be a manual for parents written by children. Because, in one respect, (just one respect) children are closer to God than parents and other people. But the message really is for all of us. For all of us who have felt so cut off from the love and foregiveness of God. And, of course, the really good news is that the love of God lives quietly and serenely and securely in all of our hearts...parents and other people and children too.
Loving you lots, Jimi.
