We love Him because He first loved us.
We arise because He raised us from the dust.
We are clean because He washed us, through and through.
Because He had reached down to us we reach out to you.

Yes, I agree that the title is absolutely perfect. Lovely little poem, and certainly bound to bring a smile to the face of the redeemed! What a lovely reminder.

What do you mean?
The title is perfect. Those who are His are responding to what He has done for us. BeCAUSE of what He did for those who are His, the EFFECT is that His own respond by repentance and obedience. The Bible clearly teaches a spiritual/Biblical form of Cause and Effect.
Jesus loves you! I'm so sure of this, no one need tell me an opposing thought. My mind's made up.
Yep, it's closed.
