Reading
SAA Notes
What verse in today’s reading do you think would be a good one to memorise. This is another famous chapter on love.
SJA Notes
* Lord God, thank You for Your love for us, even though we are unworthy. Please refine us today.
“In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.”
Here is the order of things.
Here is what true love looks like.
True love is not from us, we don’t do God a favour by showing our love to Him.
Instead it is’ God’s favour to us that shows us what it means to love.
His love for us is so mighty, so deep, so full that God in the Person of the Son would come down to live as a man and be crucified and take the punishment for our sins and be the payment freeing us from our sin.
What a God this is, what a love He shows us!
* Loving Father,
Thank You for Your love that we see clearly in the work of Jesus on the cross.
Thank You for Your grace and Your mercy.
Thank You that in You we find life!
Amen.
