For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations." (Psalm 100:5).

This message does not get old. It is imperative that we understand how much God really does love us. He sent His son to die for our redemption. Father God has a love for us that far surpasses the love of any human parent. God is the Father of those who accept and follow His Son (John 1:12). "Which of you, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!" (Matthew 7:9-11). The kind of love that God offers is unconditional and difficult to comprehend. We are too used to "Quid pro Quo". We are not used to unselfish love. God love so much that He sent his son to die to reconcile us with Him. The original sin separated us from God but God made possible through the sacrificial death of the lord Jesus Christ. You and I are loved! But you don't have to take my word for it. Look around and see God's love. Examine you own life and realize His love. Pray to Him and feel God's love. Each time you read the Bible I know you will be able to understand that God loves you. He does not require you to change in order for him to love you. He loves you as you are and his love will transform you.
So you you just received disturbing diagnosis from the doctor? Your spouse walks out. Your children are rebellious. The challenges are many but you have not lost it all. God loves you. He promised to always be with you and that nothing could ever separate you from Him. You can still be joyful. You can still have a future. When you have God, you have everything. God never asked you to understand His love. All God asked is for you to receive it. No guilt, no second guessing and no mental anguish. His love is pure. it is available to you. There is no need to be skeptical. God has an excellent track record. He can be trusted. You can rely on his life changing love.
The Lord Jesus Christ offers each one of us a fullness of life that is impossible without him. He said, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me" (John 14:6), and "I am the bread of life" (John 6:35), and He also indicated, "I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again" (John 3:3). Jesus' death, resurrection, and offer of eternal life is the greatest manifestation of God's love for you.
If you have not been born again (accepted Christ as your Lord and Savior) if you have not yet decided to become a Christian/ follower of Christ, let me officially invite you to come to him right now. The Bible says in Romans 10:13 "everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." My dear friend, do not wait any longer. Do not waste another minute. Give your life to God by accepting Jesus as your Savior and Lord right now. You also can be recipient of this great love. You can do what you have always done or you can try something different. "Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in him." Psalm 34:8
It is so easy to do so right here, right now and in the privacy of your own office. yoou can say this simple prayer:
Father in the name of Jesus, I thank you for this opportunity to approach you. Thank you for sending Jesus. I realize that I am a sinner. I also know that I need a savior. I confess Jesus is the living son of God who came and died for my sins. Please forgive my sins and accept me in your family. Be my Savior and the Lord of my life. I surrender all that I am to you. Take complete control. I thank you Lord. I praise you Lord. Amen!
Praise the Lord!
