God Loves You

For God so love the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

John 3: 16, 17

I often ponder what the word love means to people as they utter to their significant other or family member; love as world knows it is not the true definition of the way God sees it or intended it to be used… Love is an action word that is displayed rather than voiced, John records that Jesus Christ came to this earth because of the love which God had for the world… This is good news to all creation today is at tells us that God has so much love that He sent His son to die for us and pay for our mistakes and sins… I say that this is good news because it simple teaches us today of the very desires of God which is that we all would come to know Him… 

Jesus was sent to this earth over 2,000 years ago with a mission to pave a way for you to come to know His father; God paved the way before you even decided to choice His path which speaks to the love which He has for you… God doesn’t want any man to perish, despite what you have done, the errors of your ways and the wrong turns you have made, it’s not too late to turn around, pick yourself up and walk in the glory and will of God because He loves you… He doesn’t want to see you end up in hell; He doesn’t want you to be separated from Him for all eternity and so He sent His son to take you place… Even in the arrival of His son, which came from glory we are told that condemnation was not His mission… Jesus came to save not to ridicule, despise or discipline… This again shows the love of God… The Ten Commandments, which we all have fallen short in obeying, could’ve purchased our ticket to an eternity of weeping and gnashing of teeth… 

This has been the case since the very fall of man; however, the love of God was once again displayed not just in the arrival of Jesus but when Christ even summarized the life of a Christian as it relates to the will of God when He said in the gospel of “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind'; and, 'Love your neighbor as yourself.” No today that you are not condemned; to the contrary, you are commanded to love… As you go through this day offer your love of the Lord to others by displaying who is in you and in charge of your life… There are people who may reject or even bring up your past… For those situations simply walk with you head up knowing that God loves you, forgave you and sent His son to pave a way for you… There is light at the end of the tunnel, there is hope for the wayward soul and this all has come about because of the Love of God and His desires to save you through His son…

ALL FOR HIS GLORY!
