8 but God shows His love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. ~ Romans 5:8
It wasn’t for the righteous that Jesus died, nor was it for a good person that He died. We weren’t His friends … we were His enemies.
We were unlovable, hateful toward Him, and everything that He stood for—yet still, He chose the cross. Still, He loved us. Still, He laid down His life for us.
He didn’t wait for us to get better or to turn our lives around. He died for us while we were still sinners—while we were still rejecting Him. That’s the depth of divine love. That’s the kind of love that doesn’t make sense to the natural mind.
Therefore, encourage yourself and others in this. Don’t be too quick to condemn and cast judgment, but instead when your brother sins be there to help pick them back up again. No one is perfect. No one is even good. Not one.
Peace. Love. Go Forth and Remember God’s Love.
