God loves us unconditionally and shows us in many ways. Such as by giving us His son Jesus. Allowing Him to be sacrificed on the cross to save us from eternal damnation.

1. Ways God Shows Us
He Loves Us

2. Jesus, His Son's Sacrifice
John 3:16
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and
only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not
perish but have eternal life.
God shows his love for us in a lot of ways, but the most important
way was giving us His Son, Jesus. The sacrifice of Jesus's life on the
cross was the ultimate sacrifice ever made in the name of love. He did
this to show us, even though we are sinners, He loves us and wants
us to live in eternity with Him.
3. He Forgives and Forgets
Hebrews 8:12
He will forgive their wickedness and will remember
their sins no more.
God shows His love by forgiving us everyday. On top of that, if we
are truly sorry and strive to obey His commandments, He forgets our
sins after He's forgiven them. How awesome is that!?
4. The Unearned Blessing of Grace
2 Timothy 1:9
He has saved us and called us to a holy life—not
because of anything we have done but because of
His own purpose and grace. This grace was given us
in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time,
Sometimes God blesses us just because he wants to. We have not
done anything great or wonderful to deserve the goodness of God, but
he sees us as wonderful through the blood of Jesus, and deserving of
a blessing.
5. A New Life For Believers
Romans 6:4
We were therefore buried with him through baptism
into death in order that, just as Christ was raised
from the dead through the glory of the Father, we
too may live a new life.
When we accept Christ we get a new life. 1 John 4:10 says God sent
his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins in order to give us another
chance, a new life in Christ.
6. Healing Our Brokenness
Psalm 147:3
He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their
wounds.
God doesn’t want to see us in pain and hurting. He heals our broken
bodies and minds. He loves us so much that when we seek him out,
he can and will heal.
7. He Carries Our Troubles
Matthew 11:28
Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened,
and I will give you rest.
God encourages us to cast all our cares on him, because he cares for
us. Psalm 68:19 says, Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior, who
daily bears our burdens. God is compassionate. He wants to carry our
burdens. He wants us to trust him enough to give our cares to him.
He wants us to come to Him like children when something is wrong so
He can comfort us.
8. A Personal Relationship
Ephesians 3:12-14
In him and through faith in him we may approach
God with freedom and confidence.
There is nothing that we cannot share with God. He is the intimate
friend we share everything with. We should go to Him with our
problems, our hurts, our pain, and our fears.
9. He Loves Unconditionally
1 John 4:8
Whoever does not love does not know God, because
God is love.
God's love overshadows any problems we might experience in our
lives. He loves us freely and unconditionally. He gave his most
precious Son because of his love for us. His love is the greatest gift to
mankind.
