- Do you know, this morning, that you are loved?
- How do you know that you are loved?
- Jesus GAVE!
- He gave His life for yours...in order to rescue you!
- John 15:13 demonstrates how Jesus has shown you true love. It says, "No one has greater love [no one has shown stronger affection] than to lay down (give up) his own life for his friends."
- Today, you don't need to go any other place or or person to find out if you are loved.
- The story has already been told.
- His life has already been given!
- No other form of love ever been demonstrated that is greater than His love!
- Jesus said, "You have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you! (John 15:16)
- Rom. 5:10 says, "Even when we were God’s enemies, he made peace with us, because his Son died for us."
- So it's clear from these verses - you can't earn God's love or be good enough for His love...All you can do is Receive it.
- Quit trying to earn love through relationships.
- Quit trying to prove your worth through working harder.
- Quit trying to gain acceptance by doing and saying all the right things.
- Quit trying to show everyone that you really are worth loving.
- Simply Receive His love!
- Know deep down in your heart that you are loved!
- Rest easy in the knowledge that you don't have to prove it, earn it, work for it or show it!
- When you know that you are loved it changes the way that you think, the way you act, and the way you treat others.
- You don't have to keep seeking love from everyone else.
- You are not only loved, but you are also forgiven!
- The debt has been paid.
- He gave His life for yours so that you could live an abundant life!
- Jesus says, "I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in
abundance (to the full, till it overflows). " (John 10:10 AMP)
- You have an opportunity to live life like you've never lived before!
- Live like you are loved!
- Let that love Overflow into every other relationship you have today!
- Have a great Wednesday!
