Jesus Loves Me...


Yes, He does.

John 3:16
New International Version (NIV)
16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
 John 3:1-3
New King James Version (NKJV)
3 Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God![a] Therefore the world does not know us,[b] because it did not know Him. 2 Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is. 3 And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.
When the young man who lives in our house but doesn't want to be blogged about was a small boy we used to put him to bed by singing together three songs: "Take Me Out to the Ballgame," "Happy Birthday to Jesus," and, of course, "Jesus Loves Me."  Since then he has played ball, yearly celebrated the birth of Jesus, and grown in the knowledge that Jesus does love him; as he continues to read the Bible that tells him so.
