Do you feel like you’re not enough to come to Jesus? Listen to Zach Williams' ‘Jesus Loves.’ It’s a beautiful reminder of Christ’s mercy and undoes the lies we believe. Sometimes, we get caught up in the lies that tell us we need to be perfect and that we have to clean ourselves up before we come to God. We think, “Maybe if I try harder, if I do better if I stop falling short, then Jesus will accept me.” But the truth of the gospel message in Zach’s song is simple, and it’s wrapped in one powerful truth: You don’t have to be enough to be someone ‘Jesus loves.’

"So come on in, the door is open / And the Savior's arms are too..."

In those words, there’s an invitation to rest in His mercy. There’s no need for you to run anymore. No more hiding, no more pretending that you’re "good enough" to deserve His love. Jesus knows exactly who you are, and He loves you just as you are.

Isaiah 55:1 says, "Come, all you who are thirsty, come to the waters; and you who have no money, come, buy and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without cost." It’s a picture of grace—offered freely, with no conditions. The table is set, a seat is waiting, and Jesus has saved it just for you.

Zach reminds us that ‘all the renegades, the rebels, the ones who feel like they’ve messed up one too many times. Those prodigals who wandered away from their faith, those backsliders who feel they’ve fallen too far to return. These are the ones ‘Jesus loves.’

But it doesn’t stop there. The song also reaches into the hearts of the proud, the ones who think they have it all figured out. Even they are invited to come in, to be loved and forgiven. You don’t have to fight for His forgiveness; you don’t have to beg for His grace. The invitation is already extended—Come in and find rest.

“You don’t have to be enough / To be someone Jesus loves.”

What would happen if we let that truth sink deep into our hearts today? What if, instead of striving to earn His love, we simply accepted it, right where we are, flaws and all? What if we lived out the reality that we don’t have to be perfect to be enough for Jesus?

This is the mercy of Jesus. This is the grace that redefines everything.

So today, friend, come as you are. Whether you’re running, hiding, or just barely hanging on—Jesus loves you. His arms are open wide, and His heart is ready to welcome you home. You don’t have to prove anything to Him. You just have to accept His love just the way you are.

Romans 5:8 But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us."
