Love of God (209)
  1. “Poverty of spirit” is not an ethical value we strive for. It is an act of God’s mercy spoken to the deepest recesses of our soul when it’s overwhelmed by God’s grace.
  2. Jesus comes to you. He binds your wounds, and he pours out his body and his blood for the forgiveness of your sins.
  3. My Song Is Love Unknown is a Lenten hymn written by Samuel Crossman and John Ireland. For this particular arrangement we've added a chorus which reads: "oh, Your grace has made a way. Oh, your love has conquered this grave. Oh, Your love made known to me, and to the world, Your love I'll be." The goal with this chorus was to continue the personal tone of the song particularly emphasizing the redeeming work of Christ in our lives.
  4. God leads us to the refuge that’s more secure and safe than any man-made thing, more than anything we own, more than anything that owns us.
  5. Now, if there were another way to heaven, doubtless, he would have made it known to us.
  6. It’s God’s love that sets us free to love in the first place.
  7. God loves you no matter what. Loves you no matter how many times you have screwed up. Loves you to death, he does.
  8. The Bible is a book for the desperate. That is its target audience. Recognizing our desperation readies us to hear the consolation that only God’s Word can offer.
  9. Sometimes we make the mistake of thinking God's love is like the love we experience in human relationships. But human love is a derivative of God's love. It is lesser.
  10. For God to shine his face upon us is the same as saying, “Christ Jesus is with us.”
  11. Fred Rogers did not teach children how to live through a pandemic, but he had many profound things to say about loving our neighbors and finding our identity in that calling.
