God loved us when we had done nothing in return, nothing to earn it. That is true love!
How did God demonstrate and show His love for us? By sending His Son, Jesus Christ, to live a sinless life and pay our penalty of death on the cross. We did nothing to earn it or deserve it. He loved us when we were truly unlovely. As Christians, it is so easy to take the gift of salvation for granted, isn’t it? We start to check out when someone brings it up or we hear a sermon. Take some time today to reflect on just what Jesus did for us on the cross. Think about how much God must love you. He showed us His love when we could do nothing in return and had done nothing to earn it!

We reach our major life goals through small, purposeful steps taken daily. The same is true in our spiritual lives.

The One Verse Devotional is here to help take away the barriers of spending time with God.
