For God so loved the world…
“Good Enough”… I heard these words as a negative. Words and thoughts like I should have, could have, getting by, taking the easy road, all came to mind.
On the same day that I hear “Good Enough,” one of my devotions talked about a plaque with the motto, “Your sins are forgiven – even that one.” This gave me reassurance, that even though I may fall short of my potential or others’ expectations, I am forgiven. Jesus died on the cross for my imperfections. I have the opportunity each day to try and try again with His guiding presence and forgiveness when I feel I don’t succeed.
“For God so loved the world he gave his only begotten Son whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life. ” John 3:16
