A GREAT SERMON

“And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.”

Luke 1:31 KJV

I heard one of the greatest sermons I have ever heard.  It was a great sermon because it was about Jesus.  The pastor said “You spell love JESUS”.  Yes, Jesus is love.  Jesus not only gives love, He is love.  He is unconditional love, a love that will last for all eternity.  Yes, He loves you no matter what you have done!

Have you allowed it to go from head knowledge to heart knowledge that Jesus, the Saviour of the world loves you so much He died for your sins on the cross?  What kind of love is this?  It is an amazing unconditional love that only comes from the heart of Jesus.  O how He loves you! 

If you ever doubt someone loves you, remember the cross that Jesus died on for you.  I write a lot about Jesus loving us and it is because a Methodist preacher once said “I heard the gospel, I heard the gospel, I heard the gospel, then praise God one day I heard the gospel.”  Let me say it again, Jesus loves you!

Kurt Kaiser wrote the beautiful inspiring hymn “Oh, How He Loves You and Me”.  There are no truer words than these.  You are loved by the “KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS”.  One joyous day, He is coming back for us and we will see Him face to face.  How I long for that day.  I love You, dear Jesus.

Heavenly Father, You are so good to us.  Thank You for Jesus and thank You for being a tender compassionate and caring Father.  How wonderful it is to know that You will never hit us, curse us or yell at us.  What a healing balm it is to our heart to know we can trust You.  In Jesus’ Name, I pray.  Amen.
