Oh How I Love Jesus Because He First Love Me

"Oh how I love Jesus because he first loved me." "Oh how I love Jesus because he first" saved me. "Oh how I love Jesus because he first"set me free. Oh how Jesus Christ does really love even me. Oh how much Jesus Christ really does care for me. Oh how much Jesus Christ is really concerned about me. Jesus Christ when he walked the earth among men really cared About the very least of them. And if he were on the earth today, I would not have to be afraid. That he would not love even me. If I were the only person ever to be alive, Jesus Christ would Have died for only me! If I were the only person ever to be alive, the devil would have Tempted me successfully. And Jesus Christ would have laid down His earthly life to redeem even me! That is how much he loves me! That is how he would have showed me! I love Jesus Christ because he First loved me. And he took me out of my protective shell. And Redeemed my spirit from death, hell and the grave! I had to be carefully taught as a young girl, Jesus Christ loved me. When I did not think anybody cared about me, I knew he did. My mother and her family cared about me, but I did not know it. Many times I was so wrapped up in self pity, I could not see the Forest for the trees! I spent the vast majority of my life feeling Sorry for myself, and not really caring about anybody else! Jesus Christ carefully taught me I was to love my brothers and Sisters in the spirit of true love and acceptance! And to love and Care about my neighbors as I loved myself. It was not all about me It was all about Jesus, others and than myself! Love in Christ Jesus! Roxanne Lea Dubarry Roxy Lea 1954 Roxy 1954/ October Country July 10, 2020
