MY FAVOURITE VERSE
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
John 3:16 (King James Version)
This is my favorite verse in the Bible because real love started with the unconditional love of our Heavenly Father for us. It is because God loves us so much that He opened His heart of compassion and mercy and sent His only begotten Son into the world to die for our sins.
It is because Jesus loves us so much that He willingly walked that long lonely road to Calvary, there to be tortured and die for us. There is no love like the love that God and Jesus have for us. No one loves us like they love us, not even our families.
Someone asked me why I write about the love of our Heavenly Father and Jesus so often. It is because love, unconditional love, is the answer to all of our problems. Unconditional love started in the heart of God and was brought into the world by our precious Saviour.
We can’t change the hearts of our family and friends but Jesus can change them. We just need to get out of the way and let Him work in their hearts. There are times that we try to change them and that interferes with Jesus working in their hearts. We can trust Jesus to change their hearts.
Don’t keep trying to change the hearts of your family and friends. Allow Jesus to soften and change their hearts just as He softened and changed your heart. Jesus, thank You so much for loving us and for dying for us. You are worthy, precious Saviour! All hail, King Jesus!
