The Unconditional Love Of God by Nobody: 8:45pm On Feb 19, 2017
One of the biggest struggles many people face is a feeling that the Lord couldn’t possibly love them. Far from just saying so with words, God has also given us ample proof.



Creation itself is an expression of the awesome way He cares for us. He designed this earth as the perfect habitation for humanity and provides us with the necessities of life. But the highest expression of His love is manifested in His provision for our eternal needs.




He sent His Son to redeem us from sin so that we could be forgiven and reconciled to God—and then live with Him in heaven forever.




Why, then, with all this evidence, do so many of us still doubt His love? Perhaps the reason is that we are looking at it from our own limited perspective:



Since human beings cannot love others unconditionally, we doubt that the Lord can. After all, worldly logic considers it reasonable to be loving towards people who measure up to our standards but to hold ourselves aloof from those who don’t.
Or maybe we just feel unworthy of His love.





No one is worthy.



God’s love is based not on whether we are deserving but on His character—we need to understand that love isn’t simply something God does; it’s who He is ( 1 John 4: cool.




Divine love is a demonstration of God’s commitment to our greatest good. It’s like the ocean’s tide. You can stand on the shore and say, “I don’t believe in waves,” but that doesn’t stop them from coming.




Likewise, nothing you do or feel will stop the Father’s love from watching over you.

Have you heard of the holocaust? If you have ..good. if God can allow that to happen to his chosen people, what makes you think he cares about you??.

If he loves us, why did he create the devil to torment us?

What is the loving idea behind the creation of the mosquito??
