 THE GREATEST LOVE OF ALL

"But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us."

Romans 5:6-8
King James Version

As I listened to Bill and Gloria Gaither singing a beautiful heart touching and inspiring hymn about God's amazing love, I was fliied with wonder once again that God loves us so much. We are indeed privileged to be love by our Heavenly Fahter.

Charles Wesley wrote the beautiful heart touching and inspiring hymn "And Can It Be, That I Should Gain?".

"And can it be that I should gain An int'rest in the Savior's blood? Died He for me, who caused His pain? For me, who Him to death pursued?

Amazing love! how can it be That Thou, my God, should die for me? Amazing love! how can it be That Thou, my God, should die for me!"

God does so much for us and He wants us to love and serve His Son. Do we love Jesus? If so, are we serving Him? Do we serve Him every day or just when it is convenient for us?

Every one of us needs to search his or her heart and be sure we are making God happy. When we stand before God, will we be able to look Him in the eye or will we have to hang our head in shame because we didn't serve His beloved Son?
