Thought For Today - 5/21/09









Next time you catch yourself struggling to make up to God for something you have done wrong, working to win His approval, let the story of the prodigal son set you free. Let this story in the Bible remind you that, in spite of your sins, your Father has received you with open arms. He has put a robe of righteousness on your back with His signet ring on your hand. He has put the shoes of sonship and daughtership on your feet!

Do you feel unworthy of all that? God has not based His relationship with you on your worthiness. He has based it on His love for you! You don't have to struggle to prove yourself to Him. As far as God is concerned, you are a proven success!

Much love,
Joseph
