You Don't Know Me Quotes

“I love you,’ says the Lord. ‘I see you, and I know you, and I love you. Period. I know stuff about you that you don’t even think I know, and yet I love you. I know the things you’re hiding, and yet I love you. I love you so much that even what I know about you didn’t stop Me from sending Jesus to the cross to save you. In fact, the very fact that you are suffering is why Jesus went to the cross. To redeem you. My love is not an equation, something you have to earn or barter for. I love you—I bless you even in the midst of your sin. Not to condone it, but to remind you of the glorious reunion that awaits when you come to Me. My blessings are to remind you of My great love and to turn you in to My arms. You cannot repay My love.”

“A fresh start. We all keep secrets, and frankly many of us are living dual identities—the one the world knows and the one created by the secrets in our heart. God sees them both and He still loves you. More, He longs to set you free. He can free you. Heal you. Fix your marriage, your family, your situation. I know because I’ve seen Him do this in my life. I pray that the truth sets you free to be the person God died for you to become. Thank you for reading You Don’t Know Me.”

“Because life didn’t just come with better . . . it came with worse, too. A worse that God could have fixed, perhaps, if she’d let Him, so long ago. She hadn’t wanted to take the risk of a broken heart. Of getting hurt over and over again. But wasn’t that the nature of love? Risking betrayal? Forgiving? Wiping the slate clean and starting over? Wasn’t that the nature of God?”

“Don’t judge God’s love for you on your circumstances, Nathan. Judge it on what you know to be true. God loves you, and He’ll give you the strength to do what’s right. Just stay the course. That’s what God wants for you—everyday faith. Not . . .” John pointed at the wall.”

Period. I know stuff about you that you don’t even think I know, and yet I love you. I know the things you’re hiding, and yet I love you.
