This verse speaks clearly of God and His love for us. We all are looking for someone to love us, and a place to belong. Well, God has all of the above. God loves us. Even though we were sinners, Christ died for us. (Romans 5:8) Do you know any of your friends or family that love you that much?

God loves you so much that His plans for us includes good not evil, and to have peace and joy in our lives; God wants us to enjoy life and the love that He has for us. (Jeremiah 29:11-13)

God also says that if we call on Him He will hear us. We need to have Jesus as Savior in our lives to experience what He has planned for our lives. (Learn how you can have a relationship with God.) As you begin each day, remember that God loves you and is waiting for you to let Him help you through life. The only way to make sense of it all is to experience the love of God in your daily life.

God bless and have a great week.
