YOU ARE NOT AN ACCIDENT

Many children are unplanned by their parents, but they are not unplanned by God.Gods motive for creating you was His love. (Ephesians 1:4-5)This is how much God loves and values you!God decided to give us life through the word of truth so we might be the most important of all the things he made.James 1:18Why did God do all this?Why did He bother to go all the trouble of creating a universe for us?
