Am I connected?

Lately we have been reading through John's gospel, and I am feeling a deep conviction about how connected to Jesus I am.

I love my kids more than anything, I would die for them! That's a good thing, that's how God wants it to be but isn't that how I should feel about Jesus? More so, as He gave up everything for me, He gave me eternal life, He gave me my kids, home, money, life! I am so ungrateful to Him I wonder why He bothers with me!

I know that the Bible tells me He loves me, and it that is all about Grace. The amazing thing is there is nothing I can do to make God love me more or less He just loves me. To be loved unconditionally in spite of all my faults, is something incredibly precious.
