"This is what love is: It is not that we have
loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the means by which our sins are
forgiven." Lent is a good time for us to reflect on the true depth of God’s
love for us. This verse reminds me of the great sacrifice God made for us. As a parent, I
cannot imagine being able to sacrifice my child for the sake of someone else’s sins.
I am so very grateful for the real love that God feels for us. I feel that love
everyday with all the blessings God has given me. I am blessed with a loving family,
supportive friends, and good health. God has also made me part of a loving, caring church
family.
My prayer for Reformation this season is that we joyfully make any sacrifices necessary
to spread the good news of God’s love to those around us.
