He loved us first!!!
November 22, 2012
God is love.........We love Him because He first loved us.
Gala 2:20; John 16:19.
A Swiss theologian once went to the United states to give a series of lectures.At the end of one of then a student asked him a typical question: "Sir,what is the greatest thought that has ever crossed your mind?"
The professor,who was already turning grey,reflected for a moment,then replied by quoting from a children's hymn:"Jesus love me, this I know,for the Bible tells me so."
God's love is certainly the most extraordinary thing in the whole universe.God loved us,but not because we were lovable,but because He is love.Divine love reached us through the coming of the savior,Jesus.Many prophets experienced that love everywhere and always,in creation,in bondage and in their fears.Now that Christ has come and made the father known to us,all to do with God,light,love and life is the motive for our praise.
