Maybe we grew up being taught that God would love us more if we did something or we didn't do something. Such as, God will love us more if we do good to everybody. But the truth is God doesn't love us more if we re never been addicted to drugs, or if we've never slept around or never had an abortion, God doesn't love us more than the people who have done all those things.
He doesn't love us more because we give generously, or we are a great leader or we re a best employee or a gifted teacher, or we scored the most points. We re free from earning God's love. When we begin to understand his love and acceptance, it releases us from fearing what other people think.
Just come boldly to Him by His Grace as he said, Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke on you and learn from me, because I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy to bear, and my load is not hard to carry.”
