John 3:16 we all know by heart. "For God so loved the world"........
Matthew Ch.9 vs 13 "I will have mercy and not sacrifice; for I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance". Matthew Ch. 18 vs. 11. "For the Son of man has come to save that which was lost". He goes on to compare His mission to that of a shepherd with a lost sheep, how that if he had 100 and one got lost how he would leave the 99 to go find the one that went astray. He then says that the rejoicing would be greater over finding the one lost than the other 99 that did not go astray. Luke Ch.9 vs. 56, "For the son of man has NOT come to destroy men's lives, but to save them." He goes on to use another metaphor of sparrows and also says the very hairs of our head are numbered in CH. 12 vs 6-8.
God's love is indeed amazing.... My prayer today is, Lord help me to show that amazing love you have so graciously shown to me, to those that are lost around me, so that they might also experience your amazing love in their lives. For it is in Jesus name I pray. Amen.....
