8 Bible Verses About God’s Love

During the month of February, we are praying that our kids would know how loved they are. But here is the thing: as parents, I think it’s so easy to forget that the lessons we teach our kids about God apply to us too!

So when you tell your kids that God loves them…God loves you too.

When you tell your kids that there is nothing that they can say or do that will ever make God love them less…the same goes for you.

When you tell your kids that Jesus died for their sins, so that they can live forever…Jesus died for you too.

We have compiled a list of 8 verses about God’s love that we want to share with you. They are some of the lesser known verses, so maybe some will be new to you. I challenge you to memorize these verses as you can. Memorize them with your kids or just memorize them for yourself. Write them on notecards and take them out and repeat them all day long. This is how we fight our battles! When you have a moment of self-doubt, negativity, or self-loathing (we all have them!), recite one of these verses! The truth about God’s love that is found in His Word was written for YOU.

Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed, yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor my covenant of peace be removed," says the Lord, who has compassion on you.
