Write any phrases from the selected Bible verses that speak to you:
In your mind’s eye, see a man making the first phone call to someone he is very interested in getting to know. On a much grander scale, it’s important to remember our God is the One who “first loved us”. We have done nothing (and can do nothing) to earn this love. He IS love; all He does is motivated from this unconditional source.
Are you convinced of God’s love? Why or why not?
Explain a time when God showed His love toward you in a very personal way.
Write a prayer using the above verses as a reference.
Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine. Isaiah 43:1
Dear Lord,
When we turn to you with a repentant heart, you promise to redeem every lawless deed (Titus 2:14)! No sin is too great to be covered by your mercy, and no mess is too hopeless to be restored with your grace. Thank you for loving us in spite of us. You delightfully call us your own. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
