1 John 4:19 “ We love Him, because He first loved us.”
God is love. The central message to man given by Jesus is that the Father loves sinners. Jesus, the Son of God, God in flesh demonstrated His love to us by giving His life on the cross, dying so that we no longer have to live in the darkness of sin. His love reached down to fallen man and brought him out of the miry clay of sin, restoring him back into the image of God. Because God loved us first, we now know how love works, and Jesus being our prime example came to show us how to love others. God is love, and He wants us to live each day with love in mind. Keeping His commandments is not grievous, for the love of God motivates and inspires us to please the one we love. “He loves me, He loves me, this I know for the Bible tells me so”. And, the greatest of these is love.
