I don't deserve it.

Sheep: Lord pls let me win the Nikon DSLR, amen! Thank u Jesus ;D
Mike: Trust me..God won't hear you on this one.

Sheep: God hears all my prayers.
Mike: nah...just played chess with him...
Sheep: God knows all my desires. If its good for me, I'll get it. Sooner or later... Wait and see :)
Mike: Tell now...what have u done to deserve this?
Sheep: Nothing. I don't deserve it. But God loves me so much, he justs gives me.
Mike: haahaa
Sheep: yup. I don't deserve anything good that God gives me. But if He sees that it is good for me. He will give me.
Sheep: Just like how he gave His son Jesus to me, and to YOU.



yes God. I don't deserve it. Never did deserve anything that you have blessed me with. Never so guai (sinless) before that i deserve Jesus. Never was, never did - anything worthy enough to earn your love, to earn a place in heaven, nor to have your blessings and attention when i pray.


But God, its amazing how you just love me, despite how i am. You never did need me to earn your love. Never needed me to be sinless or pure, before i can come to you. Never needed me to earn the right to call on your name in prayers, even when I selfishly listed out my needs and wants, like a spoiled child demanding for new toys; as if i have banked in my deposit and have every right to withdraw from the teller. noo..

God loves me, just because He loves me. Simple as that. Unconditional as that.
Power of Love. just like how some people do silly things for love, despite efforts being unreciprocated. To God, its loving me despite my sins; my shame; my worst; my unworthiness. To God, its sacrificial love for me - dying on the Cross for me - knowing that
i can never reach heaven on my own.

Jesus - God - sinless.
helped me pay for the price of sin - death - hell.
by taking on my sins - death on the cross - penalty for sins paid and settled.
Christ's resurrection after 3 days - victory over death - my living God.

Who am I to warrant God's love? What have I done to deserve these?
Nothing. simply God's grace.

Thank you Jesus.
