Scripture tells us that God is love. His love for each of us surpasses our understanding. We know that He loves each of us intimately as a son or a daughter. 

The Gospel of John says that God so loved the world He sent His only Son. He sent Christ to earth in order to redeem us so that the gates of heaven could be opened for us and we could spend eternity with Him in heaven.

Out of love, Jesus laid down His life for us on the cross. He willingly chose to suffer and die because of His great love for us.

Let’s offer prayers in this Novena to God’s Love so that we might grow to a deeper appreciation and understanding of God’s love, and so that we might grow to deeper intimacy with Him in our lives!
