Who do you love? Who loves you?
Jesus says - 3:16"For God so loved the world, that he gave his one his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life"
17"For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world but to save the world through him."
18"Whoever believes in him is not condemned but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in God's one and only Son."
19"This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of the light because their deeds were evil."
[JOHN 3:16-19]
Jesus says this, not me. I've listened to a lot of people tell me a lot of different things in my life. If I believe that my mom means every word she says, when she tells me she loves me ... what more can I say about Jesus. Is Jesus a liar?
I'll leave you with this ....Jesus said ...
"I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?" [JOHN 11:25] Jesus speaking to Martha
Jesus says -- [ John 14:6] - "I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE ... NO ONE COMES TO THE FATHER (heaven) EXCEPT THROUGH ME."
So I ask you, all these things said by Jesus ...What does it mean to you? What will you choose to love, What will you choose to believe?
Remember ... God loves you 100% all the time, always ... but experiencing that love, and destroying the barrier sin has created between us and God requires the ONE WAY bridge of Faith (belief) and Love. Stay blessed, I pray for all readers, and all non readers :), Amen

One of the things that I have been learning recently is that I sin because I choose to sin (ownership), and I love because I choose to love (commitment).
I can honestly say that I love God - no matter what... at least for now.
Having said that, I know I need to be constantly reminded of God's love for me. I also need to be constantly reminded that God alone is my refuge, guide, and fortress. Finally, everything I have is only mine for the time being - He gives and takes away on His own accord.
