For God so loved the world that God made us for love.

For God so loved the world that God incarnated love itself in the person of Jesus.

For God so loved the world that God empowered us to love even our enemies, even the worst person on Twitter, even those who seem incapable of love themselves.

For God so loved the world that God called us to death—indeed walked ahead of us to death— because God knew that, on the other side, we’d find resurrection.
