What
does God really think about you?
By Catholic
Evangelist, Eddie Russell FMI
I
hope you will agree with me that
this cartoon below is quite funny.
Saint Theresa of Avilla once said, "A saint that is sad, is
one sad saint."

How true
that is. Especially when we consider that we should
be the happiest people on the earth. Jesus prayed
that His Joy would be in us and that would make our
own joy complete. (John
17:13).
"God
is Love, and the God of Love, loves us!...".
We hear these words so much these days. It is
certainly a far cry from the days of hell-fire and
brimstone and, given that it can be taken
literally, it should change our lives and our
self-esteem for the better.
Sadly, in a lot of cases it doesn't. So many
Christians fall into despair and self condemnation
in spite of this. Their self-esteem seems to be
governed by what others think rather than what God
thinks.
This seems so no matter how much God
demonstrates His Love for them in their every day
circumstances.

This
is especially true when we feel we don't deserve it.
Ahahh!... Perhaps that's the problem? We think we have
to deserve it! Worse still, we think we have to earn it! Is
this the way you think? Then give up dear friend because you
can't earn it! And you will certainly never deserve it. You
see it is a free gift which must be accepted as simply as
receiving a Christmas present. And that's the point; as
simply as receiving a Christmas present!
This free gift is called "Grace". A word which means;
unmerited, or unearned favour.
You have been receiving grace from your Insurance
Company for many years and probably didn't realise it. How
so? Well, every time your policy is due for renewal, the
Insurance Company keeps you covered until you have paid the
premium. This is the case even though your policy has run
out.
If you check with your Insurance agent, or read your
policy, you will discover that this is called "a period of
grace". In other words, you haven't paid for it, you don't
deserve it, but they keep you covered anyway. It is a free
gift and, if something untoward happened during that time,
you would still be paid out in full for any loss or
damage.
Amazingly, we can take a human promise and accept it
wholeheartedly without doubt or fear.
In fact if your Insurance Company tried to weasel out
when you made a claim, you would be most upset and demand
your justice. Surely, we should at least give God the
benefit of the doubt regarding his Grace. He has given us an
"Abundant Life Policy" bought and paid for by Jesus who has
got you "covered" for eternal life by his Blood.
You could say that the Bible is your Divine Insurance
Policy. It has some amazing clauses that spell out what God
"really thinks" about you.
It
is estimated that there are some 30,000 promises in the
Bible and they all belong to you. Below you will find some
of those clauses that pertain to you personally. Follow the
ten points of agreement and you will begin to receive the
full benefits of your Divine Insurance.

Even though this
page is presented in a fun way, the truths it contains in
the Word of God for you are infallible. By signing the
Policy Claim and reading the affirmations each day you are
placing yourself in a position to receive what it
contains.
Saint Paul tells us that faith comes by hearing, and
hearing by the Word of God (Romans 10:17). If you
read these statements faithfully they will begin to become a
reality in your life. Your self-esteem will conform to the
way God thinks about you rather than the way you, the world
or others think.
Yes, that's what it's all about. All you have to do is
turn yourself around, but, let's just forget all the "Hokie
Pokie."
