Resting in the Gift of God’s Love | Meditation on John 3:16–18

In this final meditation of the Fully Known, Fully Loved series, we return to the very heart of the gospel: God’s love.

Through the familiar but powerful words of John 3:16–18—read from The Message—we’re reminded that God didn’t send Jesus to accuse or condemn, but to rescue. To restore. To love.

Whether you’ve known Jesus for decades or are still exploring what faith means, this meditation invites you to slow down and let the truth of God’s extravagant love settle deeply into your soul.

In this guided Christian meditation, you’ll be invited to:
• Reflect on how you first came to know Jesus
• Thank God for the people who led you to Him
• Lift up someone you’re praying for who doesn’t yet know Christ
• Rest in the truth that you are fully known and still fully loved

Let the words of this passage remind you:
God loves you deeply, completely, and eternally.

Meditation Passage:

John 3:16–18, The Message Translation
This is how much God loved the world: He gave his Son, his one and only Son. And this is why: so that no one need be destroyed; by believing in him, anyone can have a whole and lasting life.
God didn’t go to all the trouble of sending his Son merely to point an accusing finger, telling the world how bad it was. He came to help, to put the world right again.
Anyone who trusts in him is acquitted; anyone who refuses to trust him has long since been under the death sentence without knowing it. And why? Because of that person’s failure to believe in the one-of-a-kind Son of God when introduced to him.
