Does God Love Me as I Am?

What Scripture Says
"But God proves His love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us."
Romans 5:8"For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor principalities, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers,"
Romans 8:38"neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
Romans 8:39"We love because He first loved us."
1 John 4:19"The LORD your God is in your midst, a mighty One who saves. He will rejoice over you with gladness; He will quiet you with His love; He will exult over you with singing."
