God is the God of goodness and love.
Of course he loves us in a good way.
Do you have that core burning spark in your soul to be extremely good and help others? Of course you do, we all have that great desire to serve God. Some don’t know God is real and champion random causes, even causes counter to God thinking they are doing good.
If you are going in the wrong direction, the Gospel is all about following Jesus, repenting of sin and trying to be selfless to help others. We can’t be perfectly good, but Jesus calls us to try our best. WWJD is relevant. We should live for the cause of goodness and love and kindness. We can champion the cause of goodness by dying to self and living for others.
Do you believe?
Do you have faith?

Proverbs 6:16-19 There are seven things that the Lord hates and cannot tolerate:
A proud look, a lying tongue, hands that kill innocent people, a mind that thinks up wicked plans, feet that hurry off to do evil, a witness who tells one lie after another, and someone who stirs up trouble among friends.
You Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet
Sometimes we might get down on ourselves for various reasons or legitimate reasons. It is one of the worst moments a person can have when they think their best parts of life are behind them.
I’m here to say that your best moments are ahead of you and they’ll last forever! Heaven will always be better than our best moment on Earth! So we have a lot to look forward to. We’ll see old friends and family who passed away, and we’ll meet lots of new friends. In Heaven, we won’t have to be concerned with our safety around others or even the environment. We’ll be able to adventure over places bigger than our universe.
That being said, don’t be in a hurry to get to Heaven. God brought you into this life, let him pick the time you leave. Let us be good and loving to all and lift each other up. Though life can get rough, we should always be trying to help others up. The world can use more love.
My prayers are that you can get more faith in Jesus, and that you can have joy serving him knowing someday you’ll be in paradise because of God’s free gift.
People can be jerks sometimes.
People can put you down or discourage others. People can be jerks. Even Christians have lapses or aren’t walking in their faith enough yet and can sin. So don’t let your self esteem be based on what others think of you. Don’t even let family put you down.
God loves you, and his opinion is basically fact. God sees greatness in you if you become and remain humble. Be good and loving always for it is a noble calling. Jesus loves you. Jesus is LORD!
