HIS GREAT 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

Edna R. Worrell wrote one of my favorite hymns “It’s Just Like His Great Love”.  I love the words in this beautiful hymn.  “It’s just like Jesus to roll the clouds away, It’s just like Jesus to keep me day by day, It’s just like Jesus all along the way, It’s just like His great love.”  O how our precious Saviour loves us.

Bill and Gloria Gaither wrote another beautiful hymn “I Could Never Out love The Lord”.  “I'm going to live the way He wants me to live I'm going to give until There's just no more to give I'm going to love, love 'til there's just no more love I could never, never out love The Lord.”

Robert Harkness wrote the hymn “WHY SHOULD HE LOVE ME SO?”  “Nails pierced His hands and His feet for my sin; Why should He love me so? He suffered sore my salvation to win; Why should He love me so? Why should He love me so? Why should He love me so? Why should my Savior to Calvary go? Why should He love me so?”

The answer to that question is not only does Jesus give love, unconditional love, He is Love.  If anyone asks you who Jesus is, tell them that Jesus is Love.  What a privilege is ours to be loved by the Saviour of the world.  You will never have a better Friend than Jesus.  He will never leave you, not even for one minute.  When you are hurting and going through a dark valley, Jesus will pick you up in His loving arms and carry you until the pain goes away.  O how I love Jesus and one happy day I am going to see Him face to face.
