We are all afraid of something. Maybe spiders, maybe death, maybe failure. Everyone fears something or someone.
But that’s okay.
We sometimes think that because of how imperfect we are, that we are broken beyond compare.
But that is the farthest thing from true.
God’s love, wave after wave, crashes over me, you, and everyone else, whether we recognize it or not.
Even though we mess up every single day, God is still on our side. He is constantly fighting for us, pursuing us, loving us, and He never stops. If it seems like He is distant, it is simply because we are pushing Him away or drawing away from Him.
He desperately wants for all of us to come to Him. His arms are wide open to all of us, everyone.
When we decide to follow Jesus, our lives are forever changed. He calls us to do things we aren’t comfortable with, but that is the DO part of faith. We must have faith.
Drawing us out beyond the shore, He is inviting us into His grace, and makes us brave.
Even though the storm is raging, He is calling us to walk into the waves, because His love has made a way for us.
Sure, the waves are big, scary, and have the potential to swallow up anything in its way, but guess what?
God is bigger. And when we have faith in Him, He makes us brave. Brave enough to do anything.
Nothing can undo God’s great love for us, not even us messing up. God is our floatie in the storm, and without Him we would sink.
Nothing that you do can make God love you any less or any more. His grace is sufficient for all of our failures, no matter what.
Stop feeling helpless, and run into His open arms, the ultimate floaties through the storm. With Him, we are made brave.
