His Arms - Read Mark 10:13-16 The last verse, “Jesus took the
children in his arms, placed his hand on them and blessed them.” He took
all of the children in his arms. It didn’t matter how many there were.
He wants to take everybody in His arms but
some of us are too busy trying to wiggle out to give our speeches, pay Him
back, earn His love. Just like the Prodigal in his father’s arms, he was
trying to get away and explain himself, but his father ignored him. His father
continued to hold him and love him and celebrate.
God is saying, “Would you stop trying to fix
yourself, and improve yourself, and better yourself, and let Me hold you? Just
come let Me hold you, restore you, heal you, forgive you, love you, celebrate
you.” - Grace
Grace starts in His arms, ends in His arms,
and is all about being in His arms. Jesus is grace. (It’s worth discovering)
