I have not been able to get "Rescued Me" (the song we sang on Sunday at GOkids) out of my head! Can you believe that God loved us so much that He died for us. he loves even the ones who beat him and put him on the cross. He even loves us when we make mistakes or break his law. We know LOVE because HE LOVES US!
What is God's law?
Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind and with all your strength. The second is like it, Love your neighbor as yourself!
Jesus chose to tell the people a story to teach them how we should love others. He told them a story (Matthew 10) about a man who went on a trip and was attacked by robbers. He was left abandoned and in pain along the road. Two people who were "supposed" to be his friends passed on by because it was inconvenient or they were too busy. Then someone came by who was "supposed" to be an enemy and they helped the man!
Anyone can love someone who is pretty, popular,nice, or fun but not everyone can love those who maybe smell or act funny or are mean. God helps us to love those people!
In fact He expects that if we are His children that we will obey His law and love them! He will help us. We just have to ask.
God loves everyone and so should I!
memory verse: For the whole law can be summed up in this one command: Love your neighbor as yourself. Galatians 5:14
