How many...

We have to take a look today at how God loves us, as a matter of His character.  Know this, friends, that God and His character are immutable, meaning that neither can change... ever.  And with all power, all knowledge and being everywhere in time and space at once, God never changes.  His love IS that amazing!  So I pose to you a question: how many love you that much?

"Only one did that for me!"

"How Many Kings" by downhere

Only one... more properly, THE only One... Jesus Christ, the Son of God, yet one with God and the Spirit in the Holy Trinity, the Creator, the Righteous Judge, the Alpha and Omega... loves us that much and that perfectly.  And it is shown every day in the salvation we are blessed to have.  Never forget that. 

I would ask you to examine, also, if there are any people (like celebrities) or things (like sports, hobbies or TV) that receive more worship-like attention than the Savior does in your life.  Then, if you find anything, ask yourself if that person/thing is worthy of such attention.  It is humbling and hurts a little to really be honest about it, but so helpful for remembering Who it is we serve... and Who served in our place!

We are to present ourselves a living sacrifice (Romans 12:1), and sacrifice is made upon an altar... let's be grateful that His is an altar of perfect love. 

Remember: Only one did that for me!

God bless you all!!!
