Romans 5:8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
It’s not just that Christ said He loved us or the fact He died for us. It is because this all happened before we even knew Him properly.
He has known us from the beginning and even though He knew how we would act in our lives, He still went ahead and gave His life for us!
I know I struggle with doing things for people when I know they are going to be rude, unkind or disrespectful toward me; but Christ still stepped forward in pure love.
