Bible- I Corinthians
13:4-8, 13 “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy. It does not boast,
it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily
angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil, but
rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes,
always preserves. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will
cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge
it will pass away. ( vs 13) And now these three remain: faith, hope and love.
But the greatest of these is love."
Bible says in John 3:16 that you are special to God. God not only gave His son, but he…
Created us in His own image
Knew us before we were born
Knows the hairs on our head (that is pretty detailed)

Psalms 139:14 tells us that we are fearfully and
wonderfully made
Psalms 139:17-18 “How precious are thy thoughts unto me, O God! How great is the sum of them! If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee.”
Did you ever think that in the beginning God spoke everything into existence, however we were so special and He loved us so much that He formed us (Different versions of the Bible- Knit vs. Formed)
God longs for fellowship with us and to be with us. He wants our heart, mind, body, soul, and time. Jesus wants a RELATIONSHIP with US!
If you have a new friend how do you get to know them???
1. Spending Time
*Talking and listening….which we can do with Jesus
* We can also meditate on scriptures and spend time that way
2. Proud of friend- Jesus
* Go places together (Jesus is everywhere and will never leave you)
* Introduce your friend to others (Tell people about Jesus. Don't be ashamed of Him)
3. Tell or Show how you feel
* We do this in prayer
* We keep His commandments
* We keep the Lord first in our life
The romantic person may show how they feel by: sending flowers and saying, “These roses may die, but my love will never die.
In the Bible: God’s love was so much that he did died for us. His love is everlasting, and will not fade. He will never leave you nor forsake you. He is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.

I’ll leave you with these Scriptures that exemplify and describe God's
love for us…
Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life”
Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life”
What more could we ever want, need, or hope for??
