Even when you have made mistakes, God has loved you totally.

Even when you have made mistakes, God has loved you totally.
Even when you have betrayed yourself, God has loved you totally.
Even when you have transgressed against others, God has loved you totally.
Even when you have hated Him, God has loved you totally.
And that is how He would have us love…
Those who are mistaken about you, love them totally.
Those who judge you, love them totally.
Those who betray you, love them totally.
Those who despise you, love them totally.
That does not mean you should give them your keys, or surrender boundaries
or any of that.
It means only that love —and only total love — lifts us above the darkness of the world.
When we think as God thinks, and love as God loves, we are given wings and a mantle of light
to protect us and bless us all ways, on all days. For such is the power of Love. Amen

Marianne Williamson
