An Evangelism Thought...
“See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know Him.” 1 John 3:1
We should not expect the world to love us, or even to like us. God has given us something far greater – His love.
