Sunday's Song

"So lay down your burdens, Lay down your shame
All who are broken, Lift up your face
Oh wanderer come home, You're not too far
So lay down your hurt, Lay down your heart
Come as you are"

These lyrics to this song are so beautiful. It confirms what we all know. God will take us just as we are. How many times do people think they need to overcome a certain sin or tackle a certain demon to "get ready" to get saved. God takes us like we are. He knows our weaknesses and our faults. He loves us despite them. And flip that the other direction and look at how judgemental we have become. We look around our churches and are the first to point fingers. I have heard good Christian people say things like "I was shocked to see him (or her) at church because of "such and such" reason. I heard a preacher say one time that church is not for the saints, church is for the sinners. And that is so true. And God doesn't prejudge us so we shouldn't be judging others either. Like this song says, God wants us to come as we are.
