Daily Devotional for Sunday October 3, 1999

Jesus Loves You

Jesus loves you!!!! Many times we get to a point in our life where we feel like no one really cares about us or really loves us. I want to assure you this morning, that Jesus loves you more than you can ever know. Because He came to this earth and walked where we walk each day, He understands the problems and difficulties of our daily life. That is one reason why our prayers have so much meaning. Jesus understands what it is like to have a sick friend. He understands what it is like to have friends in trouble. He understands when our lives are in a mess. Jesus knows, He understands, He cares...and most of all, He loves you deeply.

I pray that on this Sunday, you dwell on and find a place of understanding just how much Jesus loves you and cares about you. Sometimes, just comprehending this simple truth can make all the difference in our life. In the complexities of our life, we often need to get back to basic truths to maintain our focus. Nothing is more basic, more real, than the love Jesus has for you.

As you go thru this day, and deal with the day to day problems of life we all face every day, keep in the front of your mind the love Jesus has for you. Let that knowledge give you hope in the hard times, peace in those times where things are going OK. As you make those daily decisions we all make, remember, Jesus loves you and in our desire to reciprocate that love, we try to do those things which will be pleasing to Him. Remembering His love for us helps us to make the right decisions throughout our daily life.

I am grateful for each one of you and your concern for others. www.liveprayer.com continues to grow as we minister to more people every day. Keep that website in your prayers as people find out every day just how much Jesus loves them. Thank you for helping spread the word about this great oasis of hope on the internet. You are very special to me, but more important, you are very special to Jesus...He loves you!!!
