God will find a way

“Nature will find a way.”
Jurassic Park

One of my recent meditations focused around God’s love for us and I was reminded of a line from the movie “Jurassic Park.” I convoluted the line and stated it this way: “God will find a way to love you.” I found that thought refreshing as I worked through some Lenten meditations. As one would imagine Lenten meditations can oftentimes focus on how you have shut yourself off from God. But it seems that no matter whatever you do, somehow or someway God finds a way to kick the door of your heart open and show his love for you. My reaction, when this happens is a bit of a sense of guilt that I have shut door to Him, but then there is a feeling of great joy when I realize that He is forcing himself back into my life. As anyone, I can have a tendency to get down on myself, but I have to keep remembering that God created all men and He created all men good. In my times of self reflection, I realize that I am operating from the base of being created a good person. I still, in my heart, believe that I am a good person with a tendency towards transgressions and lapses of love. The unbelievable thing is that our relationship with God is always there for us. His love is constantly searching us out and forgiving us.
