God loves you and me. Creation is an expression of the incredible way He cares for us and provides us with the necessities of life. The highest expression of God’s love is manifested in His provision for our eternal needs and demonstrated in His sending Jesus to redeem us from sin so we can be forgiven, reconciled to God, and live with Him in Heaven forever. Why, then, with all this evidence, do so many of us still doubt His love? Perhaps it is because we look at it from our limited perspective and feel unworthy of His love. Well, I have news for you. God’s love is based not on whether we are deserving or worthy of His love. Divine love is a demonstration of God’s commitment to our greatest good. It is like the ocean tide; you cannot stop them from coming. How blessed we are to know that nothing can stop our Lord and Savior’s love from washing over us. — 1 John 4:8
