GOD IS GUILTY

You are accused of relentlessly pursuing me for weeks, months, and years. You are accused of rescuing my soul from the pit of worry, shame, self-pity, depression, and a day-after-day pointless existence. How do you plea?

The Lord answered, "Guilty as charged".

You are accused of sending Your annoying servants across my path numerous times with messages like "Jesus loves you", "Jesus cares about you", "Repent and give your life to Jesus", Jesus is the only way", etc. How do You plea?

The Lord answered, "Guilty as charged".

You are accused of dying on the cross for me and thereby canceling the penalty for all my sins. You are also accused of breaking the law of death and rising from the grave on the third day. How do You plea?

You are accused of showering my life with many blessings even when I despised and rejected You. I didn't deserve your lovingkindness. How do You plea?

The Lord answered, "Guilty as charged".

You are accused of being my Provider, my Defender, a Present Help in times of trouble, my Healer, my Shepherd, Lover of my soul, my Intercessor, my Refuge, my Light in the darkness, my Savior, and everything I need You to be. How do You plea?

You are accused of being faithful to the promises You make like "sticking closer to me than a brother" and "never leaving nor forsaking me". How do You plea?

You are accused of breaking into my life and removing all my fears and insecurities! And as if that wasn't enough, you set my life in order and left various gifts of Your peace, Your hope, Your joy, and Your love scattered everywhere in my life! How do you plea?

The Lord answered, "Guilty as charged".

You are accused of exposing every form of hatred hiding in my heart and killing stubbornness, unforgiveness, discrimination, and prejudice operating in my life! How do You plea?

The Lord answered, "Guilty as charged".

Lord, you have pleaded guilty to all charges of assaulting my life with Your love. You are hereby given the maximum sentence of receiving all my love now and throughout eternity. Your ears shall forever hear my praise and worship to You day and night. I will be bound to You forever and no person, thing, or situation will be able to separate me from You. Is there anything You wish to say before Your sentence is carried-out?

The Lord looked at me lovingly with tears in His eyes and He said: "I have no regrets and I accept the sentence you have bestowed upon Me. If I had the chance to do it all over again, I wouldn't hesitate for a second to assault you with more of My love!"

After the Lord had His say, I saw the eternal and timeless chains of love made of transparent gold placed around His heart and mine binding us forever. This court is now adjourned. It is finished!

Shalom

His servant,
