GOD'S NEVER FAILING LOVE - Max Lucado - The big news of the Bible is not that you love God but that God loves you! He tattooed your name on the palm of his hand. His thoughts of you outnumber the sand on the shore. You never leave his mind, escape his sight, or flee his thoughts. You need not win his love. You already have it. He sees the worst of you and loves you still. Your sins of tomorrow and failings of the future will not surprise him; he sees them now. Every day and deed of your life has passed before his eyes and been calculated in His decision. He knows you better than you know you and has reached His verdict: He loves you still! No discovery will disillusion him. No rebellion will dissuade him. He loves you with an everlasting love. God’s love never failing. Never ending. A loving Father God reveals Himself to mankind in the role of a Father in several contexts. The most important is that of a spiritual Father.

God will not let you go. 
God’s Never 
Failing Love
Max Lucado






The big news of the Bible is not that you love God but that God loves you!
He tattooed your name on the palm of his hand. 
His thoughts of you outnumber the sand on the shore. You never leave his mind, escape his sight, or flee his thoughts.
You need not win his love. You already have it. 
He sees the worst of you and loves you still. 
Your sins of tomorrow and failings of the future will not surprise him; he sees them now. 
Every day and deed of your life has passed before his eyes and been calculated in His decision. 
He knows you better than you know you and has reached His verdict: He loves you still! 
No discovery will disillusion him. 
No rebellion will dissuade him. 
He loves you with an everlasting love. 
God’s love—never failing. Never ending.

A loving Father

God reveals Himself to mankind in the role of a Father in several contexts. The most important is that of a spiritual Father.
Thus, Christians experience a God who expresses all the qualities of a loving Father.
- He gives us life (John 3:3);
- He loves us (John 3:16);
- He rewards our efforts (Hebrews 11:6);
- He communicates with us through His Word (John 17:17; Ephesians 1:13; Colossians 1:5; 1 Thessalonians 2:13);
- He corrects us lovingly (Hebrews 12:3-11).
.
And, most important, God will grant us the ultimate gift, eternal life in His Kingdom through His grace if we repent of our sins and obey His commands .
To experience God as a personal, caring, loving Father, you have to receive Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior. You will become a child of God and begin the fulfillment of the reason you were created by God.
Say the following prayer:
Father God, I confess I am a sinner and my sins have separated me from You. 

I am truly sorry. I now want to turn away from my past sinful life and live a new life pleasing to You.
Please forgive me, and help me avoid sinning again.
I believe that Your Son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer.
I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward. Thank You that according to Your Word, I am now Your child, and I am born again.
Please send Your Holy Spirit to help me obey You, and to do Your will for the rest of my life. I promise to study Your Word – the Bible.
Please use me for Your glory.
In Jesus' Name I pray. Amen.”
