The Greatest Love Story: This Was Sent To Me And the Beauty of It Made Me Realize That I Had to Share It With All of You
What I will be sharing with you was sent to me in an email. The impact this had on me is hard to describe. Like many others, I have been struggling with what is happening in our world.
I believe that the Holy Spirit had our sister send this to me- but not only for me – but so that I could share it with you. The Lord wants to remind us that we are Blessed and we have Hope. Those in this world who are causing evil and unrest; brethren – they have no hope at all. We should be praying for them and all of the lost souls.
From our sister, Grace
I was thinking this morning how blessed we are to be part of the greatest love story – ever told. Daughters of the King of kings, sisters in the same family. Both of us, recipients of undeserved love, mercy and grace.
You already know all these verses listed below, but it gives me great joy going over them and remembering what God has done for us.
In the beginning was the Word, the Word was with God and the Word was God.
John 1:1
And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.
John 1:14
In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him. In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
1 John 4:9-10
But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
Romans 5:8
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
John 3:16
Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.
1 JOHN 3:1
Knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers, but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot. He indeed was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you
1 Peter 1:18-20
Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
Romans 5:5
Now He who establishes us with you in Christ and has anointed us is God, who also has sealed us and given us the Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee.
2 cointhians 1:21-22
The love that God has for us, is the same yesterday, today and forever! Expressed in the giving of the most extravagant gift ever given. A gift that has value for Eternity, without the value ever diminishing. When this gift is received it can never be taken back. It is a gift that increases in value as we share that love with others and they too come to faith and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ. God gave us His Spirit as His guarantee – engagement ring – that one day soon He is coming back for His Bride. God who cannot lie has promised that this is so.
Sending love, encouragement and blessings
For me, songs of praise are always uplifting.
Borrowing some words from two songs;
The love of God has been extended to a fallen race, through Christ the Savior of all men, there’s hope in saving grace. The love of God is greater far, than gold or silver ever could afford, it reaches past the highest star and covers all the world. It’s power is eternal, it’s glory is supernal. When all this earth shall pass away, there will always be the precious love of God. It goes beyond the deepest stain that sin could ever leave. Redeeming souls to live again who will on Christ believe.
Could we with ink the ocean fill and were the skies of parchment made, were every stalk on earth a quill and every man a scribe by trade. To write the love of God above would drain the oceans dry, nor could the scroll contain the whole, though stretched from sky to sky. O love of God, how rich and pure, how measureless and strong. It shall endure for evermore.
God’s blessings to you, brethren. Trust in God. Think of these times as when Peter walked on the water – he only began to sink when he took his eyes off of Jesus and onto his circumstances.
Shalom B’Yeshua
