THROUGH THE BIBLE IN THREE YEARS
Never fall in love with a tennis player.
To them, "love" means nothing!

God's "love" for man is so much we cannot comprehend the height, width, depth or length!
Before creating man, God knew that man would sin.
God knew that sin would make our spirits leprous: infected, diseased, dying.
But God LOVED us!
And, God exhibited His "love" for us!
His love demanded a plan for our redemption - for our healing.
That plan included God, in the Person of Jesus, paying HIS ransom for our sin.
That plan included God, in the Person of Jesus, giving HIMSELF for our unrighteousness.
That plan included God, in the Person of Jesus, becoming the righteousness of God for our sake.
The "love" of God for man is SHOWN in the cross of Jesus!
God's "love" is such that He can stop being Who He is long enough to become
what we NEED!
Having received this "love," let us also exhibit our love for God!
Today, make your love for God SHOWN!
Stop being who you are long enough to be what He wants!
Love ya,
Bruce
