God is crazy in love with you.



God really does love you. He made you and believes in you. He’s for you.

We could think back to times where we’ve felt love the most—whether from a parent, or to our children, with our spouse, or a best friend. Many of these relationships are wonderful and life-giving. Yet as good as human relationships can be, they pale in comparison to the never-ending, unconditional love of God. Humans are imperfect, and all relationships have flaws. Only God is perfect, and his love is perfect. Sometimes the only way to wrap our head around this is to get into the big story of the bible. 

The big story is this "God loves you". (and he knows exactly who are are—imperfections and all—and loves you with His perfect love anyway!)

Each of us needs to grasp the view that God, our Maker, has of us. Like loving parents totally committed to the well-being of their children, God has proven his love for us time and time again. He sent his Son, Jesus to die for us. We’re that important. And he doesn’t ever give up on us. Ultimately, God’s view of you is the perfect view of you.

Who you see in the mirror isn’t the total picture. All those photos you post on Facebook and Instagram don’t provide a perfect image of your being. That mistake you made yesterday in a fit of anger doesn’t define everything about you. That talent you excel at better than everyone you know is really only a small part of your reality. Even your own lifetime of thoughts, actions, and experiences don’t fully complete the truth about who you are.

But God—only God—knows exactly who you are. He views the entire you, the core of your whole being beyond time, soul, and body. 

This advent and Christmas season we explore some themes of that "CRAZY LOVE" the big story of God' "CRAZY LOVE" is seen so powerfully in the Waiting, Coming and Birth of Jesus. 

God's CRAZY LOVE for you.
