No love on this planet can be compared to the love of God. God’s love was toward us before we ever knew Him. I can remember when I thought I did not need God in my life. My excuse…well, plain and simple…I thought there were just too many hypocrites out there. I thought if people could not be real then I wanted nothing to do with the whole deal of a relationship with God. Then the day came when I encountered some individuals that truly exhibited His love. They were real and walked the talk. They showed me that He loved me even though I did not yet love Him. He loved me even though I did not deserve His love and goodness. God knew exactly what I needed and I thank Him that He put those special people in my path to show me His love.
After living for Him for forty one years I can honestly say I cannot imagine life without Him. I thank God He loved me through people that He placed in my life, and I am ever so thankful for those that prayed for me when some gave up and thought I was too stubborn.
Romans 5:6-8 (PHILLIPS)
” And we can see that it was while we were powerless to help ourselves
that Christ died for sinful men. In human experience it is a rare thing
for one man to give his life for another, even if the latter be a good man,
though there have been a few who have had the courage to do it.
Yet the proof of God’s amazing love is this: that it was while we
were sinners that Christ died for us.”
I encourage you to think about His great love for you. The greatness of His love can be compared to none. It is so amazing and so great! God is good!
