You aren't even looking
and then IT HAPPENS.
GOD FINDS YOU.
But what if HE FINDS YOU
with your hand in the cookie jar?
Do you run and HIDE IN SHAME
like Adam & Eve did?
What where they AFRAID of,
or rather
WHO were they AFRAID of?
Did they FEAR the ONE who created them?
Did they FORGET that GOD IS LOVE?
Was it their GUILT & SHAME?
Think about it.
If they were ARAID of GOD
that they had to hide,
then they BELIEVED that GOD was not who HE said HE was,
Then why didn't GOD get rid of them
the moment they bit the apple?
BUT GOD DIDN'T
because that is not who
GOD IS.
Oh HE FOUND THEM
because HE wanted a relationship with them.
For who CREATES someone who they don't want to have a relationship.
BROKEN RELATIONSHIP seeks RESTORATION.
And GOD DID.
HE made a PROMISE to the apple eaters
that is a PROMISE for us
So when GOD FINDS you with your hand in the cookie jar
do not FEAR HIM
because
HE shows up IN LOVE
SEEKING A RESTORED RELATIONSHIP
with you.
If HE FORGAVE Adam & Eve
then how could HE not FORGIVE you.
When GOD FINDS you it is HIS LOVE THAT FINDS YOU
no matter what BROKEN condition HE FINDS you~
"The LORD is not slow to fulfill HIS promise as some count slowness,
but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish,
but that all should reach repentance" (2 Peter3:9).
For GOD would have never allowed JESUS to die on a CROSS
if HE didn't want
to have
an
UNBROKEN RELATIONSHIP
with
ALL HIS CREATIONS
as HIS SON
takes us from
BROKEN INTO BEAUTIFUL
for that is why
"HE FOUND ME"
(listen to the song below)
