"so..."

How big is that word - "so"?!

I see Jesus, sweet and beautiful,

and perfect in a world so degraded

that they couldn't see the perfection!

Living amongst us,

and walking our lives

to reveal the purest love ever known.

And then purposefully moving

ever closer to traumatic pain and anguish - knowing in advance what was coming!

He was human.

He felt as you and I would.

He was overwhelmed

to the point of sweating blood

at the thought of what was coming!

And he deserved none of it!

He could have just walked away!

Left us to it!

But then that word - "so".

"God 'so' loved, that he gave..."

If you've ever wondered what real love is -

look here.

With nothing to gain but pain for himself,

Jesus gave all he had.

To give you a chance of freedom.

Even if you didn't take it.

He loved "so" much,

he had to try.

That's love like you've never known before.

And will never find anywhere else.

Purest, most selfless and unlimited love!

And it's waiting there for you.
