Love You

God loves you. As Christians we hear that statement often, in fact, we might even say it to people. But do you believe that applies to you too? See, it's easy to say "God loves you" the tough part is saying "God loves me." It's easy for us to believe that God loves that other person but when we think about ourselves we can get into the dangerous habit of believing we are unlovable. God doesn't believe that, and neither should you!

1 John 4:9 (NLT)
9 God showed how much he loved us by sending his one and only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through him.

God loves you so much he sacrificed his son! If that's not love then nothing is! How can we even think he doesn't love every one of us! God loves us, but most importantly he loves me. We have to accept that he loves us before we can tell people that he loves them.

When we accept the truth of God's love we must come to the understanding of it. His love never runs out, he loves us all equally. He doesn't love Jimmy because Jimmy praises better or has a better family. That doesn't matter to God all that matters to him is that you know his love. A love so strong that he gave us his son. A love so strong that, if you put your faith behind it, nothing can stop you! A love strong enough to cover every sin, no matter how bad. A love worth living for. God wants to share that love with you. A love so bold that his son died for it. I promise that if you give into the love that is love, you're life will never be the same from this point. Because God loves you, and we return that love by loving ourselves.
