Real Love

Good Sunday Morning and Happy Valentine’s day!

I am this week's hostess at Stampin Sister In Christ. With today being Valentine’s Day and all about Love I could not help but chose a verse that is all about the only love that matters, which is God’s love.


"This is real love—not that we loved God,

but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins."

I John 4: 10

You know as humans we cannot even fathom that kind of love. We say I love you, but would we let our child die for those whom we love? God would have sent Jesus to die on the cross even if you were the only one on earth, He loves us that much. That is real Love.

My challenge to you is to make a card or project for someone you love letting them know how much God loves them. Salvation is the greatest gift you can ever receive, and it is a free gift from God. Tell your loved ones how much you love them but also share that God loves them even more!

I hope you can see that I stamped the sentiment I love you in the Background of the Cross, because that is exactly what God said when He sent Jesus "I love You!"

    Ceal, thanks for the wonderful challenge this week. I enjoyed pondering the scripture. Your card is stunning in its simplicity and design. It never complicated to accept the love of our Father is it? Happy Valentine's Day.
