Verse of the Day:
But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. – Romans 5:8
Devotion:
One of the most interesting parts of the gospel to me is that God gave Jesus to us while we were sinners. We weren’t made right with God and then God loved us. Instead, Jesus died and when we weren’t right with God and then Jesus made us right.
There is no one that acts like that. No one goes out of their way to help someone when they’re an enemy. And yet, that’s what God did for us.
It makes me so thankful for the goodness of God, when I realize that Jesus loved me when I had nothing to offer Him. Hopefully, this makes you grateful too. Knowing that you are loved by God even when you were unlovely to Him is so powerful. God loved you and made you right with Him.
Today, realize that you’re loved and that God has good plans for you.
