Scripture for Life - Acceptance IV (Closing thoughts)

I hope you all enjoyed the discussion on Acceptance at group tonight.

Here's a closing scripture on the topic;
Romans 5: 6-8
"(6) You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly.  (7) Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die.  (8) But God demonstrates his own love for us in this:  While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 

This scripture tells us that no matter how lonely, out of place or rejected we might feel in the world from time to time, God always accepts us.  This is proven by the ultimate symbol of acceptance, even in our fallen sinful state, Christ died for our sins.

For points, please post a reference to another scripture, any one you like, that tells of God's enduring love for us.
