Overwhelmed by His Mercy

“Some people see God, especially in the Old Testament, as angry and arbitrary and vengeful, but when I saw the whole story laid out in the Bible, I was overwhelmed by God’s mercy. And it hit me like lightning: I am part of that story. That He is pursuing ME; that He has been wooing me for my whole life.”

I Hope You Know Creator Already Loves You!

“It’s a time-proven fact that the Creator of Heaven, Earth, Humans and more, loves EVERY HUMAN BEING, no matter what age you are and sinful things you’ve done.  NO, it’s not the SINS that He loves, yet He still loves YOU the Human that has SINNED.  The Creator states His love for EVERY HUMAN in His Scripture John 3:16 KJV “For God so loved the WORLD, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”  The Creator is stating that YOU, HUMAN female (woman or girl), HUMAN male (man or boy), are LOVED by GOD because He created you! YOU ARE mentioned in John 3:16 because  YOU are included in ‘WORLD’!  So ‘WORLD’, I want YOU to know right now that you do not have to change your God-given birth-gender to be special to Him and loved by Him. Other people may speak otherwise, speak the opposite, of this truth.  He, God the Creator, ALREADY LOVES YOU and He will help you repent, get out of the sins and live His BEST, BLESSED life He’s planned for You here on Earth.”

Comfortable in Your Skin & Comfortable with Ageing

.
“I don’t think of getting older as looking better or worse; it’s just different. You change, and that’s OK. Life is about change. I don’t have anxiety about it, so I’m not running to get Botox. Maybe that will change, but I don’t think so. I feel comfortable in my skin and comfortable with ageing, so I think it’s okay that I get wrinkles.”
