THE COLOR OF LOVE

And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest.  And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.”

Revelation 7:14 KJV

The color of love is the blood of the Lamb that He shed for our sins on the cross.  God didn’t make Jesus die on the cross for us.  Jesus willingly left His Father, His home and all that He had to die for us.  This is how much He loves us.  What kind of love is this?  It is an amazing unconditional love for us.

Robert Harkness wrote the beautiful hymn “Why Should He Love Me So”.  Have you ever wondered why Jesus loves you so much?  It is because not only does Jesus give us love, He is love, unconditional love.  Nobody loves you like Jesus loves you and nobody ever will.  He will never leave you.

Heavenly Father, when I think about Jesus suffering all that pain and anguish for my sins on the cross, it breaks my heart but it also fills my heart with joy to know He loves me so much.  Jesus, thank You for caring about me and for dying on the cross for me.  I love You so much.  In Jesus’ Name, I pray.  Amen.
