So this week at youth liz talked about Love!!! But not just any love. The love of God!!
It's also been a kind of theme this weekend because mark spoke on it Sunday night. :)
So you've read the first bit and now your thinking, "what's God got to do with love?"
Well, God actually loves you more than you know. He sent his one and only son to die on a cross. Jesus, the son, freely gave his life. Because he wants a relationship with you!!!
Confused? Well Jesus is the Son, God is the farther and the Holy Spirit all form the trinity. But we don't have to really understand that bit. All we need to know, is that God is very real and he wants a real relationship with you!
He doesn't just want you to pray and read your bibles, he wants you to constantly talk and rely on him.
In the bible it says: Pile your troubles on God's shoulders-he'll carry your load, he'll help you out. He'll never let good people topple into ruin. (Psalm 55:22 MSG)
He wants to be the person you rely on! In a book I have been reading called the shack. In the book God is cast in a human form, as a motherly figure, to help the main character, Mack, discover how much he really needs God. (you should read the book) But in the book, God is kissed on the cheek by Jesus. This is the kind of intimacy God longs for with you!!
Like a father with his young, it brakes his heart to see his children ignore him....
If you feel this spoke to you, then talk to me or anyone else you know is a Christian. Or maybe you just have questions.... Well we're here :)
