If only I knew... How can God accept me

Do you find that sometimes your failures have not worried you at all? Unless, of course, you have been found out and have suffered as a result, or feared that you might suffer? Have you sometimes experienced twinges of conscience, and wondered ‘Why am I like this?’ Other times, have you ever felt really rotten inside? Have you asked yourself, ‘Why does my heart seem so rotten?’ Before trusting Jesus as his Saviour, one violent young prisoner admitted, ‘I felt dead inside towards God and other people’. Do you ever feel like that? Occasionally I have wondered, ‘What does God think of me?’ Do you ever ask that question?
