HE EVEN LOVES ME

“The LORD hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee.”
Jeremiah 31:3 KJV

Philip Paul Bliss wrote one of my favorite hymns “Jesus Loves Even Me”.  I know that He loves you, but when I think of Jesus, the KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS loving me, I am filled with awe, joy, happiness and gratitude.  Not only does He love me unconditionally, He never leaves me, not even for a minute.

Jesus loves everyone even though we hurt Him at times and fail Him and wonder of wonders, He even loves me.  When I think about my precious Saviour being beaten, ridiculed, tormented and crucified for my sins on the cross, I am so unworthy of His love and my heart is filled with gratitude and love for Him.

Just when I think I can’t love Him any more, He does something wonderful.  Jesus, the Saviour of the world loves me so much that He not only visited me in the mental hospital, He put His arms of compassion and unconditional love around me and said four beautiful words to me “I love you, Joanne”.

What a Saviour!  What a Friend, this Jesus of Nazareth!  O how I love You and one joyous day I will have the privilege of seeing You face to face.  How I long to see You.  You are wonderful, precious Jesus.  You are the reason I’m living and the Joy of my heart.  Thank You so much for loving me, dear Jesus.
