This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us...
1 John 4:10 NIV
Yesterday I met Chloe.
And suddenly there's room in my heart for one more person...
Chloe has no idea who I am & probably has no memory of our meeting as she's just 2 weeks old...
But she's loved.
Her parents love for her is unconditional and uncontrollable...
Whether you and I know it or not we are unconditionally and uncontrollably loved by the creator of the universe.
To Him you are precious.
His heart has room.
For all.
For me.
Even if we don't see it, feel it... remember it...it's true.
He loves us.

...four men arrived carrying a paralyzed man on a mat. They couldn't bring him to Jesus because of the crowd, so they dug a hole through the roof above his head. Then they lowered the man on his mat, right down in front of Jesus... Mark 2:3-4 NLT Great account of inventiveness and determination to get their friend to see Jesus. Love this. Do you wonder about the back story? Are these the same 4 people who bring this man food? Take him to the toilet every day. Clean him up. Does he live with one of them? Are they family? Are there whole families or groups of people in the background who have supported and cared for this man? A group of children who grew up seeing their parents love in action? Probably. Healing Help Hope These things are found in community. These 4 guys are the heroes here. The upfront people. One day it will be interesting to see who the background heroes are. #loveinaction #community #inthistogether #walkingeachotherhome #gospelofmark
