“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16).
A few days ago I was looking at some pictures taken of the stars with a camera in outer space. When we look at the stars from our earthly vantage point we see a brilliant scattering of twinkling lights. But in the dark vastness of outer space, they look like a thick pouring of sugar all over a black countertop. It is calculated that there are more stars in the heavens than grains of sand on the earth. Astounding, and beyond our imagination!
The God who created all this set His heart on our small planet earth as the stage to work out His purposes for eternity, the exaltation of His Son, and our eternal blessing. He sent His Son here to our pin sized dot of a planet to live, suffer and die. Why? Because He wanted to show His love to you and have you as His child for all eternity. Don’t refuse His offer of love and salvation!
