Morning Word from Pastor Peter Sunagawa

"When we were sinners"...God's love is given to sinners.

When I share the Gospel...
Sometimes,
"I'm not the kind of person who can go to church. I'll go when I become more serious,"
I hear this from people 😨.

...God's love is unconditional. When we were sinners,
we were irresponsible 😎 and useless,
doing worse things... making mistakes—God's love is for such people.

Therefore, God doesn't love you because you're a fine person,
or because you seem useful.

To those who are useless, incapable of doing good, and who consider themselves sinners 😰,
God says, "I love you.
You are precious and honored in my eyes."

Shalom 😃
