I love you! And you, and you, and you! God

Jer 31:3 (NIV) - I have loved you with an everlasting love.

You told Patricia about Me, and that was a good thing to do.
But what I really wanted you to do is tell her how much I love her.

Patricia was the last stop on my church van route. So I took the opportunity to see if she was ready to talk about Jesus. But I failed to deliver the message that God wanted her to hear. Maybe it's the same message that He wants you to hear: "I LOVE YOU!"

Do you know how much God loves you? The world says that your birth was a genetic accident or the result of blind chance. But the timing and circumstances of your birth were all part God's divine plan. You weren't born because your parents got together. Your parents got together because it was God's appointed time for you to be born. Long before He created the world, God had already decided when and where you would be born, your physical appearance, and your unique personality. These are all part of the destiny that God fashioned for you.

Many people think that if the good they do outweighs the bad, they will get a passing grade and make it into Heaven. But this is not the way it works. It is God's mercy and grace the whole way!

I offer it as a free gift of grace. I have already paid for it. It was purchased for you. Accept it while there is time. The things of this world you gladly buy for a price. Why do you not accept a free gift from above?
