Not only for what we are


I read a bible verse today 1 John 4:10. It says, “This is love not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent His son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.” This is a wonderful truth that we need to accept. Jesus Christ has a love for you and me that is unconditional, perfect, and will never be taken away. We are loved. Nothing in us gave rise to it, and nothing in us can extinguish it. And His love is creative. Jesus sees in each of us the man or woman we were meant to be. With His help we can love people in the same way for it is impossible to give out love without becoming a more loving person. He loves us not only for what we are but also for what we can be.
