TEARS OF LOVE

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."

John 3: 16
King James Version

One day God opened His arms of love and sent His Son to die for our sins. On that day, God shed tears of Love. I have tried to imagine how God must have felt on that day, and it is impossible to comprehend how He felt that day.

You and I have never suffered the pain that He felt that day, and still feels every day by the way we treat His Son, Jesus.

When will we stop hurting Jesus by the way we treat other people? Every time that we say something critical, judgmental, and harsh to someone, we break the heart of Jesus. When He looks into our heart for a place to rest and finds none, His heart is broken.

Have you fallen in love with Jesus? There is a difference between being saved and being in love with Him. You may have preached for years, taught Sunday School for years, sing in the choir, and write for Him, but are you really in love with Him?

Everything that we do in life should be for Jesus, and should show the love of Jesus. Have you made room in your heart for Jesus? Is He the center of your life? He loves you, do you love Him?
