Because we don’t say “I love you” enough. Because sometimes we ‘forget’ to say it. Just in time for Valentine’s Day…A love list for Jesus. Because it needs to be said.

- He is an encourager. Matthew 6:34
- He is compassionate. John 8:1-11
- He is calm in the storm. Mark 4:35-41
- He didn’t care what others thought about the company he kept. Matthew 9:11
- He forgives. 1 John 1:9
- He lost his patience a few times too. Matthew 21:12
- He endured the worst of human-kind had to offer on the cross, yet He did it all for us. 1 Peter 2:23-25
- His family tree is full of broken people, just like all of us. Matthew 1:1-17
Because it takes writing a list of things I love about someone that reminds me how much I love them. Thanks to Pastor Steve for this little assignment.
