John
10 "Loved By God"
John
10:11 NLT, "I am the good
shepherd. The good shepherd sacrifices his life
for the sheep."
We are so greatly valued by
God. We were paid for with a dear price - the
sacrifice of His Son, Jesus Christ. Because we've
accepted Jesus as our Good Shepherd, we've entered
into relationship with Him. In that relationship,
He cares for the things that we care
about. He loves us right where we are.
He's burdened with our burdens. Nothing comes as a
surprise to God, He is always there, ready to
lead us on the path we should
go.
The good shepherd
didn't just love us in sacrifice, He
loves us in our daily
lives.
Today,
take a moment to reflect not only on your love for
God, but on His amazing love for
you. |

40 Days of
Love
Unearth the core of Jesus' ministry in
how we show love to the people God has placed in
our lives here on earth. How can we
communicate more like Jesus? How do we love
our creator, our neighbors, and
ourselves?
Let's discover together a love
that is patient, kind, forgiving, unselfish and
always speaks the truth, all during this six-week
journey into the very heart of the
matter.
If you would like to host a small
group during this campaign we ask that you contact
the church office at 412-372-1333 so we can know
where small groups are
meeting.
