As The Father Loves Me

Jesus, You are loved by the Almighty Father and You love us as He loves You. Your time with us on earth shows a new kind of love. It is a love that requires enduring suffering and humiliation at the hands of those who do not understand. Even suffering at the hands of those who do understand but who are confused and lost. The Father loved us so dearly that He sent His only Son, You, to save us by losing His life for us. Jesus, strengthen us to show true love, even if it is only speaking up for You in a world that is rapidly abandoning You and aiming to make Your teachings extinct. Amen. John 15: 9-17
