The Father Loves Jesus — John 10:17-18

The Takeaway: Many of you learned to sing “Jesus Loves Me” in your earliest years: “Jesus love me, this I know, for the Bible tells me so. Little ones to him belong; they are weak, but he is strong. Yes, Jesus loves me!” What a good way to affirm and provide security to little fearful children! The greater truth that will remove your anxiety and provide lifelong assurance is Jesus’ affirmation that "The Father loves me…." (v. 17). Allow yourself to stretch and embrace the fullness of the Father’s love as revealed in Jesus’ Good Shepherd sermon.
