Message Points:
"Grace wins: How much does God love us? Even though we disobey him on a daily basis, we say we are sorry yet we do it again. Unlimited, unconditional, understanding love. There is never anything you do or too far you have gone away from the Lord that he will not take you back. Our desire is to follow God with all of our heart. We will never achieve perfection so do not chase it. Chase Jesus with all of your heart. He will compel you and draw us to love God. There is a war within us and it is a constant battle. If you walk by the desires of the spirit of God then you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. God will never quit on you so do not give up on yourself. The evil one will never give up on you either so the struggle will always be constant. God is on your side. You must resist the devil and stay strong. Who I am hates who I have been. We don't need someone to point the finger at us when we mess up. We know that we messed up. We need the Church and our friends to love us to tell us that we do not have to live like that. God is the God of forgiveness. Cast love on your neighbors not judgment. How many times would you let someone wrong you before you decided you had enough? How many times do you continue to disobey God but yet he takes you in his arms and forgives you over and over. If you do all these things for others or for the Lord but you do them without love then you have done them for nothing. Without love we are useless. Jesus loves you. The world has enough judgment what it needs is more love."
