1 John 4:8, "Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is Love."
God's Love is so BIG, it is hard to describe. But once you've tasted, once you've encountered Him, you will NEVER be the same. You can't stop talking about it. Just like when you first fell in love with someone. You couldn't stop talking about them right? You always wanted to be with them. You wanted to know everything about them. You wanted to spend the rest of your life with them....That's how it is with Jesus. Then all you want to do is satisfy His hearts desire. The only difference in Jesus's love is, HE WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU, and He doesn't base His love on who you are, but on Who He is. Big difference!!!
Jesus came, as the bible calls Him, the Bread of life. John 6:51, "I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats this bread will live forever. This bread is my flesh, which I will give to the world." That's the message I want to share with anyone who is searching and never satisfied. He fills you!
I don't have the words to describe such a love as His. But the picture is very clear. THE CROSS!! I don't question anymore if my existence matters. I know I do. Love died for me and you. People go from one relationship to another looking to fill that void. Value yourself as God values you.
1 John 4: 9-10, "In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent His only Son into the world, so that we might live through Him.....not that we loved God but that He first loved us."
He does not love you based on your performance. There is nothing you can do to cause God to love you any more than He already does, and nothing to love you less. He loves us more than we love ourselves or anyone else in your life will love you.
In opening your life to Christ, you will find total love and acceptance. To be secure in His love, you will become a VERY SECURE person. That's where it begins. Knowing who you are in Christ!
