"Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life." – John 6:54
Smile! God loves you!
Though we may continually fall into sin, we still have an all-powerful God that loves us. Nothing we can do can stop Him from loving us. Indeed, we are not more powerful than God. He died to remove our sins, even those we are in the midst of. He is not going to cast us aside. Doing so, He would have to cast aside who He is.
The infinite cause of all being loves you and I so much that He was willing to become mortal and die for us. Surely, He does not love the sins that we commit. They hurt Him like we will never understand. But just like a parent smiles through the tears when a child who has just hurt their parent tries to make things better, so too does God enjoy our attempts to do likewise.
He cannot even stop loving even those who continually try to hurt Him. The Devil and demons are a great example of this. God did not stop loving them. No, He still loves them. If He were to stop loving them, they would cease to exist. God keeps everything and everyone in existence. He rejects no one, even those who reject Him.
God wants us to be cleansed from our sins. He wants us to love Him completely. He wants us to stop hurting Him with our sins. He wants to be in a loving relationship with us in such a way that we can only experience in Heaven. Please God, help us to strive towards a pure loving relationship with You!

About the Author
I am an adopted son of God through baptism, though still a great sinner. God has blessed me with a wonderful wife and 11 lovely children, 3 of which have gone to Heaven before their birth.
I love the Rosary and started sharing little Catholic reflections with others. My little reflections have helped deepen my faith and I hope they can help others as well. Though not always fully inspired by the Holy Spirit, I enjoy when He takes over and seeing what direction He takes the reflection.
Please say a prayer for me and I will continue to pray for all who read my little reflections, especially for them to be read as the Holy Spirit intends. St. Maximilian Kolbe, pray for the success of my little reflections and for all of Catholic365 and its readers.
