Representing God in the thoughts you think.

At times I have acted like I was nice and loving all the time thinking thoughts that were not nice and loving. This is what God calls being a hypocrite. 

It is my belief that if  you claim to represent God by being some sort of religious person yet you misrepresent God in the thoughts you think you misrepresent God more than if you did not claim to represent Him. 

God cannot change. He cannot misrepresent Himself in the thoughts He thinks. He has only ever thought loving thoughts towards you. He has never thought hurtful thoughts towards anyone.  

If you are misrepresenting God in the thoughts you think, you are hurting yourself. God would not be Who He Is if He did not try to help you.
