“For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16)
Has something bad happened to you? If so, do you think it means God doesn’t really know what’s going on? Or worse, maybe He knows, but He’s not pleased with you or He doesn’t love you? Are you interpreting His love by your circumstances -- instead of interpreting your circumstances by His love?
When you’re tempted to question whether or not God cares, remember Christmas and the Baby in Bethlehem. Jesus said, “The Father Himself loves you because you have loved Me and have believed that I came from God.” (John 16:27)
When tempted to doubt God’s love, take a good look at the heart of God wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. God loves you so much that He has given you Jesus.
