BELOVED
What it means to be called BELOVED

“See what kind of love the Father has

given to us, that we should be called
children of God & so we are.” 1 John 3:1

This word is the key principle God is trying

to teach us about His kind of love.
The love of God is different. The word
beloved literally means esteemed, dear,
favorite, worthy of love.

It is a word indicating action on the part of

the one doing the loving.
The God of the universe, the same God
who paints a sunset, shapes a mountain
and plans the waves of the sea has
chosen to LOVE us, not because of who
we are, but because of who HE is.

Our role in this is to BE-LOVED.

ALWAYS REMEMBER!!
