BEGINNING OF UNCONDITIONAL 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 KJV

When God gave His Son to die on the cross for our sins, it was the beginning of unconditional love.  Jesus, our precious and loving Saviour had never sinned yet He walked that lonely road to Calvary and there allowed them to crucify Him for your sins and for my sins.  Nobody loves us like God and Jesus love us.

I believe when Jesus said “It is finished” as He was hanging on the cross that He died of a broken heart.  Jesus could have come down from the cross but He stayed on the cross because He loves His Father and wanted to be obedient to Him and finish the mission His Father had given Him.

God loves you unconditionally.  There is nothing you could ever do that would make Him stop loving you.  You can hurt Him every day and break His heart but He will always love you.  Knowing that He loves us unconditionally should make us want to do everything we can do to make Him happy.

Heavenly Father, not only do You love us unconditionally You also comfort us when we are discouraged and heartbroken.  Thank You for loving us so much that You gave Jesus to die for our sins.  Thank You, precious Father, for adopting me into Your family.  I love You so much.  In Jesus’ Name, I pray.  Amen.
