For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
Romans 5:8
But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
If you are a Christian, you recognize the truth of both of these verses. God loves you! As a matter of fact, when Christ died on the cross, He had you in mind. He knew each of us, and knowing we would sin, He forgave us ahead of time.
Romans 5:8, doesn't tell the whole story. As we go through life, we ignore God's Word, we do things we shouldn't do, we make bad choices, we associate with the wrong people.
The sad fact is we might live that way for most of our lives. There is however, something most of us don't realize until we accept Jesus as our Savior, and realize we need forgiveness.
That one thing was the fact that Jesus and the Holy Spirit helped us along the way, and steered us toward salvation. Yes we had rough times every so often, but that was allowed by God to get our attention. We also found out, that our bad decisions, had consequences, even though we were forgiven. So if you are down, frightened, overwhelmed by what you see in the world, remember this important fact. God loves you unconditionally! God wants you back with Him in heaven.
Deuteronomy 31:6
Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the Lord your God, He is the one who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you.
God bless you and your family.
Praise the Lord!
Remember Jesus Loves You
