You are greatly loved.

But God showed his great love for us
by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners.
Romans 5:8 NLT

“You are not defined by your mistakes.
You are defined by God.
He loves you no matter what.”
(unknown)

And may you have the power to understand,
as all God’s people should,
how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is.
Ephesians 3:18 NLT

“God’s unconditional love is a very difficult concept
for people to accept because,
in the world, there’s always payment for everything we receive.
It’s just how things work here. But God is not like people!”
Joyce Meyer
***
And this hope will not lead to disappointment.
For we know how dearly God loves us,
because he has given us the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with his love.
Romans 5:5 NLT
***
“God loves us NOT because we’re lovable, because He is love.
Not because He needs to receive, because He delights to give.”
C. S. Lewis
***
And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love.
Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,
neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—
not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love.
No power in the sky above or in the earth below—
indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us
from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 8:38-39 NLT

“You ask me ‘What’s the greatest act of faith?’
To me it is to look in the mirror of God’s word,
and see all my faults, all my sin, all my shortcomings
and to believe that God loves me exactly as he says he does.”
Paul Washer
