I believe this can relate to our relationship with our Holy Father. When we are off course and hurting ourselves and others it breaks our God’s heart. There are so many ways we harm ourselves and others and sometimes we don’t even see that we are doing it. Addiction, misspent time and priorities, money, lying, hanging onto the past, jealously, blame, anger, regret; these seemingly small things can have huge effects on our lives and the lives of those who love us. If you could look back as you walk out the door tomorrow morning and see the face of God, what would you see?
We are children of God and God loves each of us so very much that it pains him to see us struggling through this life. God’s love can also be life changing. God does not look down on us or think we are horrible people because of our struggles. He loves us unconditionally despite our faults. If we can open our eyes and let God into our hearts and daily lives anything is possible.
If you see something in your life that is bringing you down please look to the face of God and his love will help you through. God will NEVER give up on you so I pray that you will not give up on yourself.
“In all their suffering he also suffered, and he personally rescued them. In his love and mercy he redeemed them. He lifted them up and carried them through all the years.”
– Isaiah 63:9
“Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible."
– Matthew19:26
