I like you a lot. This is because we are so much alike. We are all unique and God loves all of us. Especially those who do his will. He does have favorites in my opinion. But even before I surrendered he loved me enough to save my life a few times and keep me from going to prison. Long story.
I used to think God did not like me, but I have made so many improvements that I think he does now. I like your honesty and sense of humor. I like your compassion and kindness. I like that you understand me.
Whenever I start to feel people don't like me I think of the story of the Ugly Duckling.

Acts 10:35 But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.
Acts 10:36 The word which God sent unto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all
God has no favorites as He extends His mercy and grace to all who will receive it.
It's the odd duck that separates itself from the norm of others, not the ugly duckling as God does not create ugly, but some people can be an ugly duck on the inside.
