God is Love!

     The thought that our God is a God of love continued to come to my mind through out the day yesterday.  Probably the most well-known verse in the Bible reminds us of this promise.  In John 3:16 the Bible says, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."  Yesterday I was reminded of how unlovely we as humans really are.  I met a man yesterday while knocking on doors that had great bitterness in his heart towards God.  Several doors we knocked on, the people behind them had absolutely no time for God.  Before leaving this one man's door, I stated to him to never forget that God is a God of love.  Upon being order to leave the property the man continued to yell, "never come back!"  My heart broke for that man and the many others that we briefly met yesterday. 
     In Romans 8:38-39 we see that nothing "shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."  No matter what man thinks of God or says toward God, it will not change the fact that God loves them.  Even when Adam and Eve rejected God's love, God still loved them.  May we be conscious today of just how much God loves us and share it with someone else today!
