Experiencing The Love of God Firsthand

The other day I received a friend request on facebook from someone that I do not know.  I checked on her friends and the one person we have in common is her Pastor and I love him dearly.  He is awesome!  Carol shared her testimony with me and so I had to share in part with you, my readers because it is a true testimony of the love of God.

Carol said, “…  I am a new christian and 63 yrs young. I started going to church with my best friend of 49 yrs.  I was brought to the Lord in September, baptized In October. I love the church my fellowship family and I smile all the time now. I finally found what I had been searching for. Pastor _____ is great I just love every one. I was raised. Catholic but for over ten yrs I felt empty till the day I walked Into _____ Church. I knew then I was done searching I found what was missing. And I have been praising the Lord ever since.”

I am going to to share with you again the verse that I used in yesterday’s blog post.  Here is Jeremiah 31:3, “The LORD hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee.”  He just told you that He has loved you with an everlasting love; but, have you received it?

So, how are you doing?
