God's love for us

Israel, the Lord who created you says,
“Do not be afraid—I will save you.
I have called you by name—you are mine.
When you pass through deep waters, I will be with you;
your troubles will not overwhelm you.
When you pass through fire, you will not be burned;
the hard trials that come will not hurt you.
For I am the Lord your God,
the holy God of Israel, who saves you.
I will give up Egypt to set you free;
I will give up Ethiopia and Seba.
I will give up whole nations to save your life,
because you are precious to me
and because I love you and give you honor.
Do not be afraid—I am with you!

Isaiah 43:1-5

Wow... Amazing isn't it? Although God sais this to Israël I really believe that the love that He has, is for everyone. For those who do not know much about the bible, this is a verse found in the Old Testament. This means that it was part of an old covenant between God and Israël. We are living in a new covenant, the covenant of Jesus Christ' sacrifice. In the New Testament (the new covenant) God says similar things to us! But this passage just overwhelmed me with joy when I read it. He loves us so much, that He gave His only Son. To die for us.
If you accepted Jesus as your saviour, then I believe this verse above applies to you aswel!

May God the Father bless you through His Son Jesus. And may the Holy Spirit praise Jesus through you!
