The love of God

That day on Calvary,three people died on the cross.Two of them died for their own transgressions,but the one in the middle,his name is Jesus.He died for your transgressions.That's how much God the Father loves you.That man on the cross is the very Son of God!That man,although found sinless in his entire life,had to take the cross.And all for you!This Valentine's Day,maybe you have not received anything from the person you wanted so much to receive a gift from.Maybe you have not even received a gift from anybody.Maybe that desired proposal has not come.And maybe because of that you are beginning to reproach yourself.You're thinking,'Maybe nobody loves me at all.Maybe I'm just not good enough.' But hey,let me tell you one thing.You're definitely not unloved.That's right,you are loved.Very much,in fact.If you're asking for a sign of that love,think back about what happened about 2000 years ago,that day on Calvary.Jesus did an act of love,undisputedly the greatest act of love.And just for you.You're worth that much.God values you,and so He sent His Son to take the cross specially for you.
Maybe this Valentine's Day hasn't been good for you at all.You've lost something.Something dear to you.Maybe a pet,maybe a child,anything.And maybe you're reproaching yourself,maybe you're starting to think twice about whether God understands.About whether God knows.But hey,that day 2000 years ago on Calvary,God lost a child too.Now you tell me,does God understand the pain that you're feeling right now?
John3:16 'For God so loved the world that He gave his one and only Son,that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.'
Friends,do you realize the love God has for you?God loves you so much.So much.


You lavish me with love
As I wait at your feet
Your love like sweet perfume
Washes over me

You comfort me with words
When to you I run
You hold me in your arms
My haven from the storm

I can't help but tell the world of
Your great grace
How you came to love
Crucified,you've saved

I speak of your great love for me
I glorify you,majesty
Your love will never ever change
I see your open hands of grace
Nailed to the cross for me in grace
Your love,you lavish on me
Your love,you lavish on me
