God knew what he would get when he decided to love you.
We can use me as an example. When God decided to love me he knew that he was going to get someone who would consistently walk away from him and say "your love isn't enough", someone who would choose boys, drugs, drinking, and things of the world over him. He knew he was getting someone with a wandering heart. BUT (because he made me... Ps 139) he also knew he was getting someone who is passionate, someone who loves deeply, someone who doesn't quit when she's started something, someone who is called to his purpose, and someone who would return to him and love him back.
I was worth the exchange for him.
And so are you.
You're worth the exchange. He decided you were worth it when he decided to love you. He knew what he was getting when he decided to love you. He knew you'd wrong him (because we all do), he knew you'd fall short of his glory (because we all do), but he knew you personally and loved you (Ps 139). He showed you that he thinks your worth it with the cross. Jesus came to show how God loves. Jesus is God taking the risk on you and saying "I love you, will you love me back?" He gives you the choice. He waits patiently and relentlessly for you.
He always will.
He always will.
