Knowing and not rejecting

What we know can hurt us. 

I love food.

Burgers, pizza, black forest cake, cookies, ice cream and fast food is awesome.

The foods I love can hurt me and cause major health problems.

What are some foods that you love?

One fast food meal can have as many calories that I am supposed to have in an entire day.

I know it is bad, and sometimes I still indulge in it.

We sometimes like what is bad for us.

Even though we do things that are wrong, Jesus still cares for us.

The Samaritan women who Jesus knew everything about and how she has been with multiple guys, was not feeling guilt from what Jesus said to her, instead she did this after her conversation with Jesus in John 4:28-29…

“Then, leaving her water jar, the woman went back to the town and said to the people, “Come, see a man who told me everything I ever did. Could this be the Messiah?” They came out of the town and made their way toward him.”

The women had her sins exposed by Jesus, she did not feel guilt but wanted to tell people.

Jesus came to show us that even when we do things that are wrong, he did not come to condemn us but to show us love.

Sometimes, what we do is harmful to us.

God loves us and wants us to improve.

The women did not leave feeling guilty but exited to tell other people from him.

We know we are not perfect (hopefully) and make mistakes.

Jesus still loves us and wants to see us improve in life.

Just like some foods are bad for us and we still love it.

We do things that are wrong and Jesus still loves us.

You are loved.

Never forget that.

Jesus loves you.

Have a great day.
