Be Bold
I watch you my child as you come before me, you kneel respectfully, your head bowed, your eyes lowered. Before my throne you cower waiting for my displeasure, my anger for a sinner.
I sent my son, Jesus for you. He bore all your sin upon the cross in Calvary. He opened the way for you to attain eternal life. I hold no anger for you and I AM not displeased with you.
You are my family, my son, my daughter. I want you to run into my throne room with boldness, I want you to run into my arms for I delight in you. I want everyone to see the love of a father for his children for you are all my children.
(NIV) 2 Corinthians 5:18-20
All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people’s sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled to God.
(NIV) 1 John 3: 1-3
See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. All who have this hope in him purify themselves, just as he is pure.
(NIV) 1 John 4: 17-19
This is how love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment: In this world we are like Jesus. There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
We love because he first loved us.
