Does God love me?

God loves you – yes, you. You might ask how you can know for sure. The answer is simple: God says so in the Bible. And His love is unconditional towards everyone – including you.

How, then, is God’s love shown? He doesn’t just say that He loves you but His actions reveal the same. When we think what God has done for us, we can see how great His love is.

In the beginning, the relationship between God and man was perfect – man never doubted God’s love then. But the Fall of Man changed everything and severed our relationship with God. Still, it never changed God’s love towards us. The love of our Heavenly Father was so great and so deep that He mended the situation. His love materialised 2,000 years ago when God’s only Son died on a cross. Jesus died, so that our sins wouldn’t separate us from God. Jesus died, so that you could have eternal life in Heaven and forever live surrounded by His love.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.
(John 3:16 ESV)

Lord God, I pray that I could feel and believe Your love to be true in my life.
