The ransom is a wonderful gift that Jehovah has given us. Why can we say that? Consider the bond that exists between Jehovah and his Son. Jesus said: "The Father loves me" and I love the Father." (John 10:17;14:31) The bond between them grew stronger over the course of billions of years. (Proverbs 8:22, 23, 30) Now think how it must have pained God to allow his Son to suffer and die. Jehovah loves mankind-including you-so much that he was willing to give his beloved Son as a sacrifice to enable you and others to live forever. (John 3:16; Galatians 2:20) There can be no greater reason to love God.
Your love for Jehovah has grown as yo have learned more about him. Surely you want to draw closer to him now and forever. And you can. He kindly encourages you to make his heart rejoice. (Proverbs 23:15) You can do that not only by words but also actions. The way you live your life will show that you truly love Jehovah. (1 John 5:3) That is the best goal in life you could ever choose.
