So many people think that they have to clean up their act before God will accept them.  They think that their sins are too great for Him to love them.  This, however, is not the case.  It is because we are sinners that Jesus gave His life for us, and He accepts us just as we are - sins and all.  All we have to do is reach out to Him, ask Him to forgive us, give our lives to Him, and He will do the rest.  

IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU WEAR

It doesn't matter what you wear,
Or what you look like on the outside.
God doesn't look through the eyes of man…
He sees what's on the inside.

It doesn't matter where you go,
Or if you seem to lose your way,
For God will be your guiding light,
And by your side He'll always stay.

It doesn't matter if you're short or tall,
Or if you're yellow, black or white.
Do not fear… God loves you still,
For you are precious in His sight.

It doesn't matter what you've done,
Or if you're rich or poor,
For even before the world began
God knew what lay in store.

He sent His Son to die for you,
To set you free from sin.
So give your life to Him right now -
Just ask Him to come in.

He'll wash away all guilt and shame,
And heal your wounded soul.
Reach out to Him - give Him your heart -
He will touch you; make you whole.

You see, I know just how you feel;
I too had fears and doubt,
But the love of God casts out all fears,
And He will never shut you out.
