Excerpt from Today's Devotion,
"You Are Loved"
based on Jeremiach 31:3 , which reads:
“I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore I have continued my faithfulness to you.”
"It is not that we loved God, but that He loved us. God has all knowledge. He knows every sin you will do or think. With that knowledge He still chose you. How much does God love us? As the Father loves the Son, in the same manner Jesus loves His people. This love is as intimate, strong, and firmly established as the eternal relationship between the Son and the Father."
