DAY 3
Praising God For The Gifts Of Christ's Love
For I am persuaded that neither death nor life,
nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present
nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other
created thing, shall be able to separate us from
the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our lord
Romans 8:38-39
How much does Christ love us?
More than we, as mere mortals, can comprehend. His love
is perfect and steadfast. Even though we are fallible and wayward, the Good Shepherd cares for us still. Even though we have fallen far short of the Father's commandments,
Christ loves us with a power and depth that are beyond our understanding The sacrifice that Jesus
made upon the cross was made for each of us, and His love
endures to the edge of eternity and beyond.
Christ is the ultimate Savior of mankind and the personal Savior of those who believe in him.
Christ's love changes everything. When you accept His gift of grace, you are transformed, not only for today, but also for all eternity. If you haven't already done so, accept Jesus Christ as your Savior. He's waiting patiently for you to invite him into your heart. Please don't make Him wait a single minute longer.
I am the good shepherd
The good shepherd lays down his life
for the sheep.
john 10: 11 HCSB
Pastor Terri helped me to understand just how much God loves me.. One Sunday he said, When my (his) granddaughter raises her little arms up to him it warms his heart, and those of you have have Grandchildren know what I am talking about, I was in my seat and I smiled cause I knew exactly what he meant since I have grandchildren of my own.
Pastor Terri also said, You know how much you love that grand baby, and there isn't a thing in this world that you wouldn't do for her/him Well that is only a little of how much God loves us, I cried because I knew that I had that love for my kids and now my grand kids but never did i realize that someone could love me that much. And there I stood in church feeling that love run through my whole entire body, like nothing I have every felt before,
I have watched all Six of my grand babies come into this world, I thought that was the most assume feeling ever, But, it is Gods love that is the best feeling ever!
When you doubt that you are not good enough, or that he doens't love you because of something you have done whatever the case may be, remember that love you have for you children, and your grand children, and times that by a billion, thats how much God loves us,
He has been following us all of our lives, when we fall he is there, when our heart is breaking he is there, when we feel like our world is falling apart, he is there, waiting for us to accept him, not just cry out to him in need. but to accept him, Get to know him, Talk to him, Turn our problems over to him.
For God knows what the out come is long before it ever started.
