Love of Jesus

Remember the time that you first fell in love with someone: a girlfriend, a boyfriend. Your every thought was about them, day and night. Your whole life revolved around pleasing them, living with them, being with them. You couldn’t bear to be apart from them. You even copied their emotions and ideals.

Putting Jesus first

You put them first in nearly everything; altering your life to revolve around theirs. You couldn’t live without them, wanting to be with them all the time. Especially so, if they lived hundreds or thousands of miles away! Your heart yearned for the time you would be together again.

Now, imagine this person is Jesus - get to know Him and love Him!

Perfect Love

Jesus offers you His perfect love. You can trust Him completely; He will never let you down or forsake you. He will return your love with His love; which is more than you can ever hope to love Him. He died for you, that is how much He loves you; doesn’t he deserve all you can give Him? Isn’t He worthy of all your love every day? Pray that He will allow you to feel His love and know it.
