A Father's Love Letter To You

LOVE WORTH FINDING
Dr. Adrian Rogers

The Initiating Grace of God

"We love Him, because He first loved us." 1 John 4:19

When I was in the sixth grade, I wrote a love note to Joyce Louise Gentry. Then she became my bride and my beloved. Do you know she still has that note? From that time on she began to take an interest in me. Do you know why? Because I first loved her.

Do you know what the Bible is? It is God's love letter to you. It is God saying to you, "I have set my eye upon you. I love you!"

You're not saved by doing good works. You're not saved by joining a church. You are saved by the grace of God that said, "I love you" first.

When was the last time you wrote a love letter?

When was the last time you received one?

Spend some time today and write a love letter to the Lord.

WORDS TO WARM THE HEART

s

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. Colossians 3:16

d

Are any among you suffering? They should pray. Are any cheerful? They should sing songs of praise. James 5:13

s

Sing a new song to the Lord! Sing to the Lord, all the world! Sing to the Lord, and praise him! Proclaim every day the good news that he has saved us. Psalm 96:1-2

s

"What though my joys and comforts die?

The Lord my Savior liveth;

What though the darkness gather round?

Songs in the night he giveth;

No storm can shake my inmost calm.

While to that refuge clinging,

Since Christ is Lord of heaven and earth,

How can I keep from singing?
