Come As You Are: Jesus Is Calling YouHave you ever felt like you need to get your lifetogether before coming to Jesus? Maybe you feel too broken, too sinful, too ashamed, or too far from God.But here is the good news: Jesus is not waiting foryou to become perfect before you come to Him. Come as you are.Jesus Christ did not come to save those who considerthemselves righteous. He did not come for the proud, the arrogant, or those whobelieve they do not need God. Jesus came for sinners. He came for the broken, the lost, the rejected, and those who recognize their need for a Savior.In Matthew 9:9–13, we see Jesus calling Matthew,a tax collector, to follow Him. Jesus was often found eating and spending time with tax collectors and sinners. This shocked the religious leaders of His day.They questioned why Jesus would associate with people they considered unworthy. But Jesus made His mission clear:“Those who are well have no need of a physician, butthose who are sick.”Jesus was showing us something powerful: a doctorgoes to the sick, and a Savior comes for sinners.Many people want to come to Jesus Christ, butthey are afraid of what people in the church might say about them. They areafraid of being judged. They think, “What will they think of me if theyknow my past? What will they say if they know what I have done?”But today, I want you to remember this: Jesusalready knows your past, your failures, your mistakes, and your struggles—andHe is still calling you.You don't have to clean yourself up before coming toJesus. Come to Him as you are, and allow Him to transform your life.
