Exp God – Sept 25, Believing God’s Love

[16] We know how much God loves us, and we have put our trust in his love.  God is love, and all who live in love live in God, and God lives in them. (1Jn 4:16 NLTse)

…The greatest truth in all of Scripture is this: God is love…

…God loves you, not because you deserve His love, but because His nature is love. The only way He will ever relate to you is in love. His love for you gives you an inherent worth that nothing can diminish…

…Without a clear understanding and acceptance of God’s love for you, you will be disoriented to Him and to what He wants to do in your life. If you will accept God’s love, however, you will be able to return love to God as well as to others… [19] We love each other [ Greek We love. Other manuscripts read We love God; still others read We love him.] because he loved us first. (1Jn 4:19 NLTse)
