The Wonder of a Loving Relationship

Soon my wife and I will celebrate our 45th Wedding Anniversary. What a wonder filled life we have had.

For most of those years we were privileged to serve side by side in Christian ministry. Our love for each other defies description. Many others have had this same experience.

Love, indeed, is a wonderful thing. The love of a parent for a child, a child for a parent, and so it goes. Yet, none of these can compare with the love that God has for His creation.

God sent His son, Jesus, as an expression of that love. The Bible says all humankind has sinned and is in need of forgiveness. Because of the love Jesus expressed on the Cross, forgiveness is ours for the asking.  "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness" (1st John 1:9)

We need not go it alone in this life. As a member of God's family, He draws alongside of us and walks with us each step of the way. This is truly a 'wonder filled' love.

You can experience this love today!

There's the wonder of sunset at evening,
The wonder as sunrise I see;
But the wonder of wonders that thrills my soul
Is the wonder that God loves me.

Chorus
O, the wonder of it all! The wonder of it all!
Just to think that God loves me.
O, the wonder of it all! The wonder of it all!
Just to think that God loves me.

(George Beverly Shea)
