For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life.
John 3:16

If my sweetheart of a husband wrote me letter, I would read it and reread it and tuck the contents away in my heart, where I could recall it at will. How much more should I read and reread God’s love letter to me and hide His words in my heart where I can recall them when needed?

What a wonderful, loving and merciful God we serve! He looked down from His lofty home in heaven and had compassion on us who were lost in our sin and without hope or remedy. Because God is love, He provided salvation for us from the foundation of the world, through the life, death and resurrection of His one and only Son, Jesus Christ.

He not only provided salvation and a savior, but He wrote a love letter to us through His prophets! By getting familiar with the words He has written, we are taught how to live and love in this world. And, more importantly, by abiding in His Word (Love Letter), we can have the privilege of knowing this wonderful and powerful God intimately. His Son has opened the door for direct worship to the Father when we pray in His Name!
