The Cup

Jesus Likes You Chatter

If you’re not too tired of hearing me talk about JESUS LIKES YOU….

This is a picture of the cup that is the subject of chapter 43 of the book. I was surprised I still had it. There are a few chips on the handle. But it is a visual of the cup (and t-shirts and caps) we handed out at the Jackson County Fair in South Mississippi years ago. It stirred up some interesting conversations!

“Some of the conversations about that saying were pretty animated! One lady quoted John 3: 16 to me and said we were wrong- Jesus doesn’t LIKE us, He LOVES us. Even after some conversation, she didn’t back down, either! Many people noted the unfamiliar verse, John 3: 17. Nobody could quote that one. So, I encouraged them to take a free t-shirt or hat and look it up later. Do you know what it says? “For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but so that the world might be saved through him” John 3: 17. I admit that it doesn’t have the words, “Jesus Likes You,” but when I read that verse, I feel that Jesus doesn’t just love me, he likes me.” — Jesus Likes You: Fifty Words For Stronger Faith by John E. Dobbs

This chapter and the experience it describes gave me the title for a book of fifty brief but Scripture-oriented devotionals. Besides being an attention-getting slogan, it is one of those truths that we sometimes find hard to believe. We know ourselves better than anyone and God knows us better than that! Even with our flaws, troubles, worries, and mistakes, Jesus still likes us. What a grace-filled love!
