Have you ever felt that you're just lost in life? Like you wish you had someone truly great and powerful to love you and hug you and tell you that you're forgiven for all the mistakes you've made?
There is someone who can do that for you. His name is Jesus Christ. He is our Heavenly Father and the King of the Universe so of course it would be His love and forgiveness that you're needing. But you have to reach out to Him first and make a sincere effort to turn away from sin.
I can tell you that my own walk with Jesus has been far from perfect. It was just recently when I fell to sin again, when I began to get back into the usual immoral nonsense that plagues me whenever I let Jesus go. But God doesn't ask us to be permanently flawless—He asks us to love Him and keep His commandments.
"By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and obey His commandments. For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome. For everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith." (1 John 5:2-4, ESV)
