“’At the same time,’ says the Lord, ‘I will be the God of all the families of Israel, and they shall be My people.’ The Lord has appeared of old to me, saying: ‘Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love; Therefore with lovingkindness I have drawn you’” (Jeremiah 31:1, 3, NKJV).
This promise was made when the Law of Moses was still in effect, but it remains relevant even today. When we accept Jesus for Who He is, our faith makes us part of God’s family. God fashioned us out of love for us, because love is part of His divine nature.
