God has chosen us.
Our status is not a matter of our worthiness, but of His love.
Sinclair B. Ferguson

“God loves you simply because He has chosen to do so.
He loves you when you don’t feel lovely.
He loves you when no one else loves you.
Others may abandon you, divorce you, and ignore you,
but God will love you always. No matter what!”
Max Lucado

“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
**********
God’s love is so extravagant and so inexplicable that
He loved us before we were us.
He loved us before we existed.
He knew many of us would reject Him, hate Him,
curse Him, rebel against Him.
Yet He chose to love us. God loves us because He is love.
Judah Smith

I am sure of this. Nothing can stop God from loving us.
Death cannot do that. Life cannot do that.
Angels cannot do that, nor can demons do that.
Nothing that happens to us now, or that will happen in a future time can do that.
No powerful spirits can do that.
Nothing that is high above the world can do that,
nor anything that is deep down below the ground.
Nothing else in the whole universe can stop God from loving us.
Because of our Lord Christ Jesus, we know how much God loves us.
Romans 8:38-39 Easy English Bible

Try to live this day with the knowledge that God loves you completely and forever.
