Personal Question I John 4:19 - We love Him because He first loved us John 3:16 – For God so loved the world… - Do you make this personal? For God so Loved ME

Romans 5: …God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him. 10 For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life. How did God demonstrate his love for us?
