God does not tolerate His children. He values their inherent worth. We are not His pet projects to be fixed. We are His lifelong lovers. God knows us by name and clothes us with His righteousness so we can enjoy an intimate relationship with Him. This is the Good News! Sadly, some christians today do not have either the time or patience to care for those who are desperate to experience God’s love. When the church fails to represent Christ’s long-suffering to one of its very own, the world looks on and says, “There’s no God!” Ironically, God looks on and nods.
