Inspirational Thought

"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. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved." - John 3:16,17 (KJV)

Featured Song

“In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him. 10 In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him.” – 1 John 4:9-10, 16 (NKJV)

God’s love for us is amazing! He created us and set us apart. Because of sin we have wondered away from Him. Yet still He reaches out to us to draw us back to Him. In the act He gave of Himself for us, even when we reject Him. All this because He wants the best for us. What a wonderful Lord!
