God loves you!
This is love: not that we loved God but that He loved us and sent His Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.
1 John 4:10 New International Version
THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
God loves you regardless of whether you love Him or not PERIOD! God loved us first! He offered his Son to save us regardless of our decision to believe in Him or to ignore His grace. Regardless of our condition or state or how bad of a sinner we were. Remember, ‘For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God,’ because of Adam’s sin in the Garden. Regardless of whether we loved Him or not. His love was, is and always will be ‘Unconditional Love.’ We are given the ability to accept or reject the death of His Son as the sacrifice for our sins and the proof of His Love for us. It’s our choice either way. But, what we need to understand, as 1 John 2:1-2 emphasizes, is that He died for everyone else in the world too, and that now we must tell them of HIS sacrifice of love for them!
MY PRAYER…
Precious Father, Almighty God, why You should love me and send Jesus to die for me I will never fully understand. But I thank You for Your love, Your mercy, and especially Your grace (unmerited favor) and I receive Your love. Thank You for Your sacrifice for my sins. Thank You, Jesus, for coming to save me and to show me the way. I pray in Jesus’ name and by His intercession at the Father’s right hand for me.
Amen
