I love me too – Paul Washer
God
loves you and has a wonderful plan for your life. Many times this is
accompanied by an explanation of all that Jesus can do for the person; fix
their life, their marriage, their finances, their self-esteem. So you walk up
to – what we know about a sinner; he is self-centered, he is autonomous, he
wants to do his own thing, he has his own dreams, and he is in love with
himself – so you walk up to this man and say,
“God
loves you and has a wonderful plan for your life”.
And
he goes, “What! God loves me? That’s fantastic, I love me too! Well this is
wonderful! And you are saying that He loves me more than I love me? Now that
sounds impossible. How can anyone have such a great love? And God has a
wonderful plan for my life? I have a wonderful plan for my life too! And you’re
telling me that if I accept this Jesus he will help me with all my wonderful
plans and that I can have my best life now?”
“Yes!”
“Well
then I’ll take a God like that! Do you got two of them?”
