When God Says I Love You

Love is probably the most overused and abused word in the English language. I say I love my dog, I love ice cream, I love my new sweater, and I love my children—all using the same word!

Do I feel the same affection toward all of these things? No! There’s a love that means I really really really like something, or a word that means I would do anything for this person…even die.

When God says, “I love you,” He is free of our human frailties. Our confusing emotions. Our tainted affections. When God says, “I love you with an everlasting love,”

He means..

He really, really likes you. And He would do anything for you—even die.

And, He did!

Always remember, there is hope with God.
