In 2009 a couple from our church gave me a copy of a devotional book by Bo Giertz. I decided to turn back to it this summer and have once again been blessed by his wonderful way of pointing the reader to see, perhaps anew, the lovely Gospel of Jesus Christ. Here are a few entries from my journey that encouraged me. Maybe they'll do the same for you.
That's what God's love is. It loves sinners like us, who are hopelessly separated from this divine love. (page 545)
God shows us exactly the thing God's love wants to give us when He sacrificed the dearest thing He had. (page 546)
(Jesus) became one with us when He took our sins upon Himself. His love drowned our sins. (page 547)
