The document considers the wonder of God's love for humanity through several biblical passages. It asks "What is man?" that God is mindful of him, and notes that while man is small, God has made him a little lower than angels and crowned him with glory. It wonders at God's love for man and His drawing of man to Himself with an everlasting love. Finally, it marvels that God would pay the ultimate price of sending His Son to die for mankind, reconciling humanity to Himself through Christ's death despite humans being God's enemies, to demonstrate His love for sinners.
