This much I know is true

It occurred to me the other day just how much people rely on preconceived notions about other people. How we think we KNOW them because we know a few things about them. Normally we only let most people see just a small portion of us and our lives, we don’t allow the majority of people we know into our lives so deeply that they truly KNOW us. I have friends that see certain parts of me and my life, but most of them just don’t know that much about me. So, I started asking myself why, and the answer was pretty simple. If they really knew me, would they still love me?! Then, of course, I smiled! Because it was at that point that I remembered that no matter how great my sins (is number and in size) that God will always love me. He will always be there rooting for me, He knows each and every flaw, each and every sin, every dark corner that has been swept away from others view like dust under a rug, and He still loves me.
