Says it all

So, I was at a meeting earlier this week and we needed a bit of a devotional and I read a few verses from the Bible and pretty much let it go at that as quite often the Bible says it better than me. Here's what I read:

“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. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God.” John 3:16-21

This also reminds me of the song Wonderful Cross which was written by J. D. Walt, Isaac Watts, Chris Tomlin & Jesse Reeves and incorporates an old and well-known hymn with some new music and a new chorus. One of the verses says "love so amazing, so divine, demands my life, my soul, my all". 

I think that sums it up pretty well.
