This morning as I finished up my shower, I stood praying for my mom and dad. I prayed for healing - with our without a doctor's aid - and for mom to have another 20 or more years to watch her grandchildren grow. I prayed that Mom will not have to make the same kinds of choices that her mother had to make at the same age about how to spend the last months of her life.

As I finished drying off and stepped out of the shower, the phone rang. Hearing the "long-distance" ring, I hurried to the phone expecting a call from my parents. Instead I heard a recorded voice saying:

For God so loved the world that He gave his only Son, that whoever believes in Him will not perish but have everlasting life.

God loves you!

Wow! At a moment when I was vulnerable yet trusting, God "called" to remind me of His love. Not only did Jesus love me enough to give His life so that I can have eternal life in Him, but He loved me enough to arrange that robo-call at that moment. Yes, Jesus loves me, and He loves you, too.
