On a long road trip with my father it should be no surprise that I started to remember things that he does that annoy me. It was something as simple as the way he ate an apple. Silly, I know, but it bugged me.
That got me thinking. I love my father very much but still things he does annoy me. So I wondered, do things I do annoy God?
Does God ever face palm when I do something stupid or annoying?
I don't think God does. God loves me so much that there is nothing I could do to cause Him to love me any less. My mind doesn't understand that because I can't love like that. People annoy me and do things that piss me off. I love them as best I can, but I can't love them as perfectly as God love them or myself.
It was a humbling moment and a moment of grasping at God's love, a love that cannot be ever fully grasped.
I know God probably laughs at me all the time. Bringing God joy is something I need to be better at. If I make God more happy I will make others happy.
Peace all
There is a longing we all have that cannot be fulfilled. Union with God is the only true source of joy, yet, the pull of worldly things persists. The struggle goes on, but God is with me all the way. Here are my thoughts, findings and ramblings as I try to be my perfect self, for the glory of God.
Who Am I?
- D-Wherl
- I'm just a guy trying to trust in God and be the best I can be for God and others, then myself.
I loved my parents, and they loved me --- despite of who I am, or was. And I know their love never stopped. And yet I can remember the day when my dad told me that he was disappointed in me. That hurt so much. And now I don't even remember what it was that I did which caused his comment. But I know what he felt, and what I felt also.
ReplyDeleteI know God doesn't stop loving me, but sometimes I think I disappoint Him. And that bothers me greatly.
