Because of Jesus. 1 John 4:17-19

The Consummation of Love 17 Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world. 18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love. 19 We love Him because He first loved us. What are you afraid of? Some fears are simple like the fear of spiders or snakes. Maybe they're a little bigger like the fear of heights or flying. We can have fear for our children's future, financial fears, fear events won't go in our favor. Real or imagined, our fears can keep us from a peaceful nights sleep. One fear we never need to have is the fear God doesn't love us. Even when we sin, even those that don't follow Him, He still loves. God is love. He is the very essence of love. God loves with every part of His being. It's who He is, it's why He created us, it's why He wants to bless us and it's why He sent His Son. God wants to spend eternity with you. That's why Jesus died on the cross for you. It was the only way He could bridge the gap between our unrighteousness and God's pure holiness. Because of Jesus, we don't have to fear damnation, we don't have to fear this life and we don't have to fear death. Because of Jesus. Blessings, Cecilia
