Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. (John 15:13)
Jesus teaches us the meaning of ultimate love through His own example. He showed this by laying down His life on the cross and paying the penalty for our sins. If you ever doubt God’s love, remember what Jesus did for you on the cross.
When you feel alone, remember that Jesus willingly gave His life for you. Ask God to fill your heart with this great love so it can overflow to others.
Take a moment to reflect on the sacrificial love of Jesus, and receive His gracious gift of life by believing in Him. Remember, you are deeply loved by God. ~ Jeff M Newman
