I bought the book "100 Things God Loves About You", thinking it was going to be a gift for Christmas for someone. But I am enjoying it a little too much and will read it on days when I don't feel so lovable. And to share writings sometimes with Karen's Korner readers.   Here is #5:   GOD LOVES TO CALL YOU HIS OWN "See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are!" ~ 1 John 3:1 *   "God loves you. More than just a little. More than a lot. He loves you....... lavishly. His love is not the stingy, strings-attached love of this world. It is a love that stretches beyond the stars and reaches far into eternity. Just call His name, reach out to Him---and His love will sweep into your life, scoop you up, and whisper softly over and over, 'You are Mine'...... for you are His very own." ******
