God's Love
God's love is not a mushy, kissy-face kind of love. Modern culture tends to think that it is the only kind of love [actually the greeks had 3 different kinds of words for love]. His love is like that of a parent to a child, but with more passion and desire. He wants to hold us. He wants to protect us. He wants us to know Him and be with Him.I you need something explained or have any questions, email me at [email protected].
OK. I think I'm just gonna let the Bible do the talking now.
...I have loved you with an everlasting love...
[Jeremiah 31:3]
But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us
[Romans 5:8]
Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail.
[Lamentations 3:22]
The LORD your God is with you, He is mighty to save.
He will take great delight in you, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing.
[Zephaniah 3:17]
[Speaking to God...]
Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you
[Psalm 63:3]
Praise be to God, who has not rejected my prayer or withheld his love from me!
[Psalm 66:20]
Since you are precious and honored in my sight, and because I love you, I will give men in exchange for you, and people in exchange for your life
[Isaiah 43:4]
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword?
[Romans 8:35]
For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
[Romans 8:38,39]
This is just a sample of what is in the Bible about God's love. There is so much more about God's faithfulness, mercy and patience. Go look it up for yourself. It'll be good for you.
