Today's Verse - Romans 5:8 (KJV)

But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

—Romans 5:8 (KJV)

Thoughts on Today's Verse...​

God didn't wait till we were "good enough" to bring us his salvation. Notice the words in this context (Romans 5:6-10) to describe us without grace: powerless, ungodly, sinners, and enemies. God sent Jesus when we were lost and desperately needed his grace. But then, that's what love really means by God's definition and chosen actions (1 John 3:16). It's more than something declared or felt; it's something radically demonstrated!

My Prayer...​

Holy and loving Father, thank you for demonstrating your love in such powerful and sacrificial ways through Jesus, in whose name we pray. Amen.

Thank you Jesus for dying for me and for making me Thine very own. Surely, there is no one else like You are, full of mercy and compassion for lost souls of the world.

Jesus love for us has no limit. Giving up His life and suffering untold pain, He opened the gates of heaven so we can enter in.
