God Sent His One and Only Son Into the World

This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. — 1 John 4:9

Today I met a friend and a new acquaintance for a walk around our neighborhood.

What a beautiful morning.

We had a great discussion and a fun walk.

The new acquaintance is recently diagnosed with breast cancer.

She will have surgery in April.

She will do a full mastectomy on one side plus reconstruction.

And she has already quit her job as school librarian, due to all the appointments she has needed.

Planning to resume again next fall.

So it was good to be able to reassure her that things will be okay.

And that God is giving her this time to be quiet and peaceful as she prepares for surgery.

Without the stress of her job.

This is how God shows His love among us: He sent His Son.

God sent His one and only Son into our world that we might live through Him.
