Jesus Loves Me

God's love for us is obviously extremely important but the benefits begin when we start loving Him. Jesus wept over Jerusalem and loved it and them as a people but they received no benefit of this action because they didn't love God back. Two thieves hung beside Christ on the cross - one went to Hell the other to Paradise - the difference is one loved back the other did not. Jesus loved them both but the one who loved back received the reward. God loving me gives me opportunities but it doesn't change me until I love Him back.
