Long story short... Last night I was dumb and fell right into Satan's trap. It was one of those things where I put myself in the wrong situation and set myself up for failure.
The crazy part about it is that right in the middle of me messing up, like literally DURING it, God showed up in the craziest way ever, seemingly out of nowhere. I don't want to go into all of the details, but I do want to tell you this -- God LOVES you personally and deeply. He really, really does. In the middle of my weakest moment, he was there. He hit me right in the face with the biggest wake up call I could ask for, other than Him personally descending from heaven in human form and talking straight to my face.
It doesn't make any sense to me why or how God loves me so much. I definitely don't deserve it. I deserve the opposite. But that's what really just blows me away about God... it doesn't matter that we don't deserve it. He loves us despite us. No matter how "bad" we are, we can never do anything to make him stop loving us. It's so crazy.
I mean really, how cool is it that God cares enough about me to come meet me in the middle of my mess, in order to get my attention?! He cares for all of us like that. So so so crazy. It's even crazier that God used my disobedience and sin last night for HIS glory. Satan THOUGHT that he won because he got me to give in. But NO. God turned it right around and used it to show me just HOW MUCH he loves me and how he's never going to give up on me. It was the greatest reminder of his love and grace for me and I'm so thankful for it. His love is truly relentless.
Wow.
Thank you, Jesus.
