not long ago, i found myself wondering why in the world a perfect and Holy God would want to save a sinner like me, a sinner who’s turned his back on a loving Father more times than he’d like to admit. apart from the fact that the Bible tells us He is love, and that He loves us, i couldn’t think of a good reason. it seems too self-serving to me to believe that Jesus died so that i can live in community with Perfection after this life is past. and yet, i think that love is exactly why He saved a sinner like me. not so that i can be served, but so that i can serve others by sharing His love with others, His children. in fact, i think that’s the whole reason He saved any of us, so that we can be His hands and feet in this world.
i believe that God is waiting for a people, His people, to be His hands and feet right now. i think he’s wondering why we’ve so selfishly kept this love to ourselves, when there are so many people we come across everyday who are yearning for this kind of love.
and that’s why i’ve created this blog, to create a place where topics like this can be written down (if for no one else’s eyes but my own), and who knows, maybe even discussed. and hopefully, the love that He has been in my life will be shared with those who need it most, and He will be introduced to even more sinners like me.
