Consent to be loved



When you’re hard on yourself…
When you’re examining your character under a microscope…
Consent to be loved while unworthy.

When you’re stuck in shame…
Consent to be loved.

When old habits cling to you…
Consent to be loved.

When inadequacy whispers that you don’t belong…
Consent to be loved.

Sometimes you hold My grace at arm’s length because you feel too sinful, too flawed, too small.

But even when you are stubborn or obstinate, I stand before you with open arms — longing for you to touch Me back, longing for you to know that nothing in you frightens Me away.

“All day long I have held out my hands to a stubborn and obstinate people”
(Romans 10:21).

My grace is not distant.
It is not reserved for the polished or the strong.
It is grace within reach.

So again, I say:

Consent to be loved while unworthy.
Yield to My love.
Receive My affection.
Agree to be loved.
Commune with Me.
Consent to be loved.

With love beyond measure,

Jesus
