DAILY READINGS: Numbers 12-13; Proverbs 10; 1 Peter 2
For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting
life. John 3:16
The 25 words in this verse have been called the gospel in its purest
form. The fi rst 12 words speak about God, the fi nal 12 about ourselves
and Son is the centre. In this verse is the greatest love we can
ever know, the greatest gift we can ever have and the greatest choice
we can ever make. Have you made that choice? —John M. Clegg
What was it, O our God, led thee to give Thy Son,
To yield Thy well-beloved for us by sin undone?
Twas love unbounded led Thee thus,
To give Thy well-beloved for us. —Anne Gilbert
