God loves YOU

John 3:16
"For God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only son to die for our sins so that we would not perish but have eternal life."

Well, that's is pretty much self explanatory there. The way im going to explain this into more depth is by breaking it up into sections. So lets begin with the first section.

"For God loved the world so much.."
Do you get that? God loves the world. He always has, does, and always will love the world. I mean come on. He created it, so why would he create it but not love it? As it says in Genesis 1:1 "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth." So there you go, God created the heavens and the EARTH. Simple as that. He not only loves the world/earth, but he also loves everyone, and everything on it. He loves us with unconditional love, love that no one on this earth can give. We'll get more into that in the next part, but for now, just realize this. Even if you, the reader, doesn't really care much about this, just realize this. God loves you no matter what, and will always love. He loved you even before you were born, and He'll love you in the future when your on your death bed. God loves you no matter what sin you commited, in fact, when you repent for that sin, He's already forgotten about it. No matter what you've done, not matter how bad it may be, whether you have killed a person, stolen, committed adultery, or whatever, God loves you! Can you even begin to imagine that? Think about this, if you had a lover, a wife/husband, and you cheated on that person, do you think they'll take you back? or if they do, do you think they can forget about it? i highly doubt it, so if you think about it, everytime we commit a sin, everytime we turn away from God ever so slightly, we're cheating on Him. It hurts him, but He doesn't turn away, He tries to reach out to you, every single time. And when you do return, when you do repent, He is so happy, and forgets all about what you have done, because He is happy just to have you back, because that's all He wants from us, our love. So as i said before, no matter what sin you have committed, God is still going to love you, which brings us to our next section...

"..that he gave his one and only son to die for our sins.."
Now look here, God gave his one and only son to die for your sins, our sins. If God was to judge us for the sins we've committed, then we would ultimately be skrewed. But God doesn't want us to be skrewed, He wants to spend eternity with us. Just like how two people get married, and spend the rest of their lives together, that's what God wants. He wants to spend all eternity with us. So He gave his one and only son to die for our sins upon the cross. That's pretty intense don't you think? Imagine you, letting your own son, the son that you love so much, to die upon a cross, for the sins of people who don't even deserve to live. Now these are people who have stolen, killed, ripped people off, raped, done drugs, committed adultery, and your son, your only son, is going to die for their sins. That's pretty rough, I don't know if i could do it but God did it. And He did it for you and I. He did it because He loves you and I. Just imagine if God didn't do that. We would all be sent to hell where we would spent all eternity in pain and suffering, and so this brings us to our last section..

"..so that we would not perish but have eternal life."
Wow, can you believe that? Having eternal life, better yet, eternal life with the creator of all things, the true father of you and I, God. That is so amazing to me. Spending eternity with God, that is so going to rock my world. And if i dont add, that sure beats spending eternity in hell. You know, our God is such an amazing God. To love us no matter what, to give us his one and only son, and to allow us to have eternal life with him!

Alot of people out there may know this already, alot may not, either way, this is a message from God to you.

God, we love you so much. You gave your one and only son to die for our sins, and forever we are in your debt. You love us God. You love us our heavenly father. Lord, I pray that this blog that you have put in me to start speaks to people all around the world. That people will realize the creator of all things, loves them, and would do anything for them. God, please use me, use us, your sons and daughters, your mighty warriors, to spread your love and your word. I love you God, and we all love you, from the bottom of our hearts. Let your will be done in our lives, let your will be done on this earth as it is in heaven. Amen.

This is my son, Paulo. God gave me a son, who will continue the vocation of his grandfather. My family decided to name him after Lolo Pablo. We are all proud of him. God is proud of him too because he sings to High heavens and to all eternity. I am rejoicing for God is with him at all times.
