“God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son.” (John 3:16)
Consider that the Eternal Father, in giving us His Son for a Redeemer… could not have given us stronger motives for hope and love to inspire us with confidence, and to draw us near to love Him.
“In giving us His Son,” says St. Augustine, “He could give us nothing more. He desires that we should avail ourselves of this immense gift in order to gain for ourselves eternal salvation and every grace that we want. In Jesus we find all that we can desire; we find light, strength, peace, confidence, love and eternal glory; for Jesus Christ is the gift Who contains all the gifts that we can seek for or desire.”
