This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.
This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.

1 John 4:9-10

Cherished Sibling in Christ:

May you remember this day and each day that you are a beloved child of God.

May you walk in the powerful knowledge that God has always loved you.

May you receive courage in knowing that at the beginning of time when the Father made His plan of redemption, when the Son agreed to be our sacrificial lamb, when the Holy Spirit prepared to dwell within our unredeemed flesh, YOU were on the Father’s heart and mind.

Jesus was agreeing to take on ALL of YOUR sin.

Holy Spirit was preparing to deliver all of God’s good, good fruit, His direction and guidance into YOUR life.

God called you to Him as surely as He called for Adam and Eve and He will continue calling you all of your life for He is the Good Shepherd.

Beloved, may you walk in God’s love, showing love to others first, even when they do not love you back or love you well for even when you did not love Him, He loved you first.

May each day find you loving Him more and more.

Amen (let it be so now).
