>God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to 
>save the world through him.

>THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY'S VERSE...
>How do you view God? Is he someone looking for a way to condemn you? 
>Is he an out-of-touch old man who doesn't really know what it's like 
>in our modern world? Is he too holy to soil himself with the 
>concerns of mere mortals and has left it up to us to work everything 
>out for ourselves? No. NO. NO! God chose to enter our world and 
>experience it from the side of mortality. God chose to enter our 
>world, not to condemn us, or it, but to redeem it. Jesus is the 
>great reminder that God longs to save us, not judge us. Thank God 
>for God! Thank God for Jesus who was God with us.
>
>MY PRAYER...
>Holy and Heavenly God, thank you that you live with those who are 
>contrite and repentant and who long for your presence. You know we 
>are only mortal, but you love us. You know that we are flawed, but 
>you redeemed us. You know that we are not perfect, but you sent 
>Jesus as the perfect sacrifice to save us. Thank you. Through my 
>Savior I offer my sincerest gratitude and praise. Amen.
