Friends In Christ Ministry: Question for today Life can hit us with unexpected and undesirable circumstances. When that happens, shock and pain can make us wonder, Does God really care about me? 1. First of all, Scripture tells us, “God is love” (1 John 4:8), which means His very nature is characterized by compassion and concern. Love originated with the Lord, and He is our greatest example of how to express it. 2. We know God loves us because He calls us His children. To those who believe in his name, he gave the right to become children of God (1 John 1:12). God actions are perfect! It would go against His character to treat His children with anything less than unconditional love. 3. Finally, the Lord gave the supreme demonstration of His love at the cross. We were all dead in our sins, but Christ went to the greatest lengths possible to give us life: He came to earth as an expression of His Father’s love, and in giving His life on our behalf, did what no one else was able to do.
