This Love Is Real

Bible in a Year: Numbers 28-30, Mark 8:22-38

While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
Romans 5:8

Today's Scripture & Insight: Romans 5:6−8

"I felt like the rug had been pulled from under me," Jojie said. "The shock of the discovery was like a physical blow." She'd found out that her fiancé was seeing someone else. Jojie's previous relationship had ended similarly. So when she later heard about God's love at a Bible study, she couldn't help wondering: Is this another scam? Will I get hurt if I believe God when He says He loves me?

Like Jojie, we may have experienced troubled relationships that left us feeling wary—or even afraid—of trusting someone's promise of love. We may even feel this way about God's love, wondering where the catch is. There is, however, no catch. "God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8).

"Eventually, I realized God had already proven His love," Jojie says, "by dying for me." My friend discovered that since our sinful state separated us from God, He reached out to us by giving Jesus to die on our behalf (Romans 5:10; 1 John 2:2). Because of this, our sins are forgiven, and we can look forward to eternity with Him (John 3:16).

Whenever we wonder whether we can truly trust God's love, let's remember what Christ did for us on the cross. We can trust His promises of love, knowing that He's faithful.

Reflect & Pray
When or why have you found it difficult to trust God's love? How can knowing Jesus died for you change your response?

Dear Jesus, thank You for the great love You showed me by dying for me. Let Your love change me, heal me, and direct my relationships.
This Love Is Real

OF KEYS AND DOORS

Every apartment or compartment with a lock has its key. It takes a key to open the gate of a house and several keys to enter the house its rooms. If you have fridge, car or wardrobe, you will equally have their keys. From the foregoing therefore, it is apparent that several good things with value have their...More
