How does God feel about me? I know that He loves me in spite of me, in spite of all I have done and will do wrong. I know this because His Son Jesus died in my place. I know He's pleased that I have recognized I can't and never will be good enough to enter Heaven no matter how hard I may try. He's pleased because I have accepted His gift - His Son Jesus - as the way to Heaven.
