John 3:16 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.
God’s love is always pure, always holy, always seeking what is best for the object he loves.
His love is given freely without the hope for anything in return.
God loves because He is love. His love is never ending - Jer. 31:3.
His love is always given first, 1 John 4:19.
His love is precious beyond words!
Until You’ve Known The Love Of God
______________________________
If you could own all the world and it's money, — Build castles tall enough to reach the sky above; — If you could know everything there was to know about life's game, — Yet you've known nothing until you've known God and His love.
CHORUS;
Until you've known the loving hand that reaches down to a fallen man — And lifts him up from out of sin where he has trod; — Until you've known just how it feels to know that God is really real; — Then you've known nothing until you've known the love of God.
If in your lifetime you could meet everybody — And you could call every name from here to yon; — But if you've not come face to face with Jesus and His saving grace, — Then you've known nothing until you've known God and His love.
