"Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God.
Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love. In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him.
In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God abides in us and his love is perfected in us."
1 John 4:7-12

Thanks for the reminder that He loves us. Loves us no matter what. He loves us.
Aren't we so blessed to be so loved. Thank you for reminding us of God's great love for us....no matter what...
I am reminded that there is a place for suffering in this life ... I believe it certainly can draw us closer to God, and it serves other purposes as well. One of those is that we are then better able to help succor our fellow beings.
I feel so fortunate we have a God of love too. I think without suffering most people would not come to God, although for me it was the birth of my daughter that brought me to Him.
