"We love because He first loved us."

I John 4:19

• How special is the love of God. We can´t imagine.

"Your eyes saw my unformed body; 

all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be."

Psalm 139:16

• He loved us before we were born. He doesn´t need anyone to be God. He is sovereign.
• Even when we don´t love Him, He continues loving us.
• We must tell everybody about His love.
• Before we chose Him, He chose us.
• It´s weird: though all this love, we forget to pray, we forget Him!
• It doesn´t matter who we are, our past, nowadays circumstances, He loves us. He stays the same, and His love never changes.

• He is a King, actually the King, but we can call Him Daddy.
• He wants to be close to us. He wants to hold us.
• But He is very polite, He will not force us to accept Him.
• We must have heard many different, wonderful love stories, but none compares to God´s love story for humanity.
• The size of His love is so big that embraces all the world, but, at the same time, so small that can fill our hearts.

"For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."

Romans 8:38-39

• God´s love is simple to understand.
• When Jesus died, the veil of the temple was torn in two pieces. That meant that we can have free access to the Holy Place, to God.
• The Lord was saying: "- Come! Let´s be close friends! I know who you are! I know everything about you! I want you the way you are!"
• He wants to make a holy place inside of us for Him to abide!
• Jesus! A small word that can explain all that love means.
• So, don´t forget this word! Keep Jesus in your heart. 
• For sure, we still didn´t enjoy all the love that is available to us.
• We must get out of our comfort zones.
• If we have never tasted God´s love, how will we be able to explain it? 
• It´s like speaking about a soda flavor though we have never tasted it before.
• Pray that God comes over you, embraces you that you feel this love that He has for you!

"And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’  or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”

 He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.”  He said to me: “It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give water without cost from the spring of the water of life.  Those who are victorious will inherit all this, and I will be their God and they will be my children."

Revelation 21:3-7
