But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
Interestingly, the Bible doesn't ever just say that God loves us. Instead, it says:
"God demonstrates his own love for us in this..." (Romans 5:8).
"This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son..." (1 John 4:10).
"For God so loved the world that he gave..." (John 3:16).
Father, thank you for loving us. We love you for what you've done. We love you for who you are. We love you for your promises. We love you for your faithfulness. Most of all, dear Father, we love you because of Jesus, who showed us how much you love us. Please empower us to show our love by serving and giving to others as Jesus did for us. In his name, we pray. Amen.
