The Greatest Love
This devotional was written by Kelly McFadden
My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. —John 15:12-13
Here are a few great things some children had to say about love:
“Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.”There is no greater love than what Jesus did for us on the cross. He laid down His life so that all would have the opportunity to be clean, pure and blameless before God the Father. He died, shamed on the cross, so that we can spend eternity with Him. These kids are right in many ways regarding how we show love to each other, but there is no greater or more perfect love than God sending His Son to die for us.
GOING DEEPER:
1. Take some time this Valentine’s Day to thank God, who loves you more than anyone, for His great gift and for showing His love to you.
2. How can you show God your love for Him?
