GIVE FROM YOUR HEART

 

"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.  For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved."

 

John 3:16, 17
King James Version

 

That is what our Heavenly Father did when He gave His beloved Son to die on the cross for your sins and for my sins.  He gave from His heart and you and I should be giving from our heart.

 

One day every one of us will stand before our Heavenly Father and give an account of how we treated His beloved Son and how we treated one another.

 

Let's give to one another because we love, not because we should.  We read in the Bible "Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver." 2 Corinthians 9:7

 

When is the last time that you told Jesus you love Him?  Have you ever told Him that you love Him?  I think sometimes we forget that Jesus has feelings also.  May God help us to be an encouragement to one another and also to our Saviour.  I love You, dear Jesus.
