I go to my youth group every wednesday and we either play games or talk about how to get closer to God and how to live and get through life the right way.
This week we had a guy (never got his name) come in and play songs as we listened to our paster (Steve) talk about how we all sin and that we should be able to forgive ourselves because none of us is perfect and we need to be able to accept ourselves as we are.
So Steve set up an activity where we write our biggest sin that is blocking us from getting closer to God and then nail it to the cross. So I did that and we all got emotional (even the guys). Then after a couple songs he told us to go back to the cross and find out what god had done with our letters to him. God had taken our letters and burned them and replaced them with an envelope with his blood on it and inside there was a personal letter to each of us. No ones was the same and even if you think that Steve had written them all personally it was God who was telling him what to write.
This was my letter... God asked where I had gone and that he misses me.... (cry) .... then he goes on into saying that he loves me and that I am very special and that I need to accept myself to have a happier life and I need to trust in his plans for my future.
I accept anything coming my way God so can you go easy on me?
