The Love Of God!

For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. –Romans 5:6

Two boys in a village began to fight, and one boy killed the other; upon seeing what happened, the villagers began to chase the boy to put him to death. The boy ran to the house of the chief and fell at the doorway, crying out to the chief for his protection. The chief came and, seeing the crowd, asked for an explanation of what was happening. The crowd yelled, “The boy killed another boy in a fight, and we have come to take him and kill him.” The chief said, “I cannot allow you to take him, for he has fallen at my doorstep,” and at that he lifted up the boy and put him in his house. Then the crowd yelled, “The boy that he killed was your son! Give him to us.” The chief’s face became despondent. The crowd continued to yell, but the chief went silent until, after a long time, he spoke again, saying, “Then I will adopt him.” In wonder the crowd departed.

Do you believe in the love of God? Do you believe He would do the same for you? He has, and no matter what has happened in your life, the love of God is up to something.
