HE LOVES US

"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

I don't think any of us including me have any idea of how much our Heavenly Father loves us. There are not enough words to describe how much God loves us. What a privilege it is to be part of the family of God.

Bill and Gloria Gaither wrote the beautiful inspiring and heart touching hymn "Family of God". I love the words in this hymn.

"I'm so glad I'm a part of the Family of God, I've been washed in the fountain, cleansed by His blood! Joint heirs with Jesus as we travel this sod, For I'm part of the family, The Family of God.

You will notice we say "brother and sister" 'round here, It's because we're a family and these are so near; When one has a heartache, we all share the tears, And rejoice in each victory in this family so dear.

From the door of an orphanage to the house of the King, No longer an outcast, a new song I sing; From rags unto riches, from the weak to the strong, I'm not worthy to be here, but praise God I belong!"

Are you a part of the family of God? If you have never admitted you are a sinner, asked God to forgive you for your sins and invited Jesus into your heart to be your Saviour, please do it even as you read this devotion. Don't miss out on spending eternity with the One Who loves you so much He died for you. I love You, dear Jesus. Thank You for everything.
