Deal Breakers

Deal Breakers. What are your deal breakers? We all have them.

In relationships, I would say smoking, cheating, and lying would be in my top five for sure. But I am sure there are more. I would want my life partner to carry his weight financially too. Oh - and number one on my list - not being a Christian - huge deal breaker.

What is truly amazing to me is that there are no deal breakers with God. It's hard to wrap my brain around really. God loves us so much that nothing we do is a deal breaker for Him. He doesn't quit us because of a habit or a sin or a shortcoming. Wow.

Deal breakers don't have to define us. They can simply be preferences that guide us in decisions we make. We can strive to be more Christ-like.

Thank you, God, for loving all of me, for who I am, every single minute of every single day.
