Perfect Little Christian?

Being Christian doesn’t mean you are perfect. What it means is that through the sacrifice of Jesus we have become clean in the eyes of God. The blood of Jesus shed on the cross does not make us unable to sin, it makes sin no longer a barrier between us and God.
As Christians, we are no better than any other person. We are all broken, we are all sinners. Nobody can go a day with out sinning, and even our thoughts can be sinful. When you come to realize God hears your thoughts, you realize there is no way to hide sin. You know what you’ve done, and so does He. He loves you in spite of your sin. God does not cause you pain. Sin and pain are part of living in a broken world.
The Hebrews believed that God sent down punishment and wrath upon them. I ask you is this, in the new covenant God offers us through His son Jesus, does He send wrath and punishment? God is love and offers himself to us. What is the point of love if you are alone? We are more than sinners; we are his children and are deeply loved despite our sin.
