An old lady was asked what was her most cherished memory in life. She thought for a while and then replied, “the day I became engaged.” When asked why she said: “I suppose it was the feeling that somebody wanted me… It is wonderful to be wanted!”
We’re wanted by God, and that is wonderful! God didn’t need to create people; He wanted to. God created us and saved us out of His great love. He says: “I have loved you with an everlasting love” (Jeremiah 31:3) and He “proves his love for us in that while we still were sinners Christ died for us. (Romans 8:5)”
