Love Magnified

What story in the Bible speaks intimately to you of God’s love? This is a question that I asked myself and others as I prepared to write this devotional. The answers were varied and specific. Most answers came quickly, letting me know these were responses from the heart. From a woman who was adopted and as an adult was privileged to know her birth parents, the answer was God’s adoption of us into His family. From a pastor who remembers his days on the streets, the lesson from Jesus about healing your opposition. One friend is especially touched by God’s grace and inclusion for those we deem unworthy.Around these answers I crafted this devotional, seeking to capture the love that pours from the pages of scripture into our hearts. I believe that the Holy Spirit has written your answer to that question into this book. The greatest love story, Jesus’ sacrifice for all mankind, is there from beginning to end. As you read, I pray your heart will be open to receive the love that resonates with your life experiences in such a way that you can feel His love healing you with each turn of the page.
